Day After

Jake spent a lot of the night throwing up struggling with morphine. After meeting with the Dr, we tried a few different meds and by mid-day jake turned a corner and wanted to eat. Starting slowly with crackers but working his way towards a banana and ultimately grill cheese with fries. Great to see him eat again. A team of drs came through and it's good to knowing the teaching hospital has Harvard Med students, makes you feel like you are in good hands all the way around. OT came by and made Jake a splint which agitated him a bit but now his set. We spent most of the day laying in bed with Jake and got our first smile and even giggle. By early evening, I was doing laps around the floor with Jake in his stroller. It was good to see he wanted out of bed. Hopefully his pain won't worsen and he will have a good night allowing us to discharge tomorrow am. Jake wants to leave the hospital and I don't blame him but not before we get the seal of approval and more importantly a shirt that can fit over his splint.
