TCH Day 5::Totally Tethered

So, we bought ourselves 24 hour TPN.
AND a14oz oral fluid restriction.
AND this hospital room until transplant {as it stands right now}

Wes had another screaming episode...this time only 30 minutes {woohoo} His tummy was real tight again from all the fluid, warranting another round of albumin and lasix.

We had a restless night and a rough morning. Mom was in a mood; Wes was in a mood...thank goodness GD visited and took over the W. Everyone napped. Yea! We took a wagon ride and checked on our fish {everyone's ok} and then we checked out the cool waterfall in the "cafeteria". Little man so enjoyed his ride.

Tomorrow...the daddy and I are switching shifts. I'm going to home to work. While I am chomping at the bit to get the heck outta here, I don't want to leave Wes. Maybe I will sneak him out with me. I get to see my Emmy tomorrow!! So excited!!! {and the hubby, of course!}
Another item on tomorrow's agenda...counting how many times someone comes through our door. Maybe it was my fantastic demeanor today, but O M G!!! Could we please have an hour without someone bugging us?!

This sounds soooooooo familiar! Especially the part about people coming in the room. Seriously!!! Couldn't they all get together and do it all at once!
