Code Brown

Callie had an awesome day.. other then one small issues. Code Brown! She had not gone since surgery so she got a suppository this morning. Needless to say she went, and went, and went. They actually stopped the IV antibiotic as she had peer liquid stools. It made for a lot of diaper changes this morning.

By midnight she will be off her IV med for pain and sedation. She is still in the PICU as she has to be closely monitored on this medication. Assuming she is going well tomorrow she will be moved to the Neuro unit. Both of the physician assistant for the doctors came by today. They were both pleased with how well Callie is doing and the progress she is making. She is still on a little blow by oxygen just to keep her levels us. This evening she played for about an hour on my lap. That was nice to see. She still is not talking much, just a few sounds here and there. Hopefully tomorrow we can hear more of her voice. She still tired easily so in time I am sure she will be telling us all about her story.

Callie had a visitor as well today from a close Friend. Zak's Godmother! It was nice to see her and catch up a little bit. It definitely makes the day pass quicker when it is broken up a little. Callie was being stubborn and really did not want to wake up when she was here.

If all goes well we are hoping to be home Saturday! It sure would be nice to get home and still have 1 day of the weekend to relax.
