Today, the surgical residents stopped by, but there was nothing new to report. I think that that is a good thing. No infections or complications is always a good thing. Right now Ezra’s biggest struggle is eating. He has been awake a lot lately, just not when he is eating. He is on a 3 hour feeding schedule, and seems to always be awake a half hour before he eats, but then falls back asleep. We also are not able to burp him, so there ends up being a lot of air in his stomach. He has a feeding tube, so it is not a big concern, it would just be nice to see progress. The truth of the mater is that we will probably be dealing with these types, of things a lot over the course of his life and it is one more thing that we need to trust God with.
We were able to get out of the hospital again today, which was nice. Our accommodations are comfortable, but lets face it, hospitals are not fun places to be. We hung out with Laurens family one last time before they head back out of town, and now we will have a couple of days with no visitors. I think we have had a visitor almost everyday, since we’ve been here. I’ve been able to do a lot of work from down here, and along with everything else, I think that I have been busier than I was back home. We do miss our normal routine, but were starting new ones, which involve me taking care of Atreyu more. Its been nice to spend more time with him, but it brings its own challenges.
