Caiden continues to do well today. He doesn't have much of an appetite, but he did drink 2 oz. of formula twice today. He was awake much of the day, but just acts tired. He watched the Super Bowl in his room. The rooms in the PICU are private rooms. It doesn't look like an ICU at all. They are much more lenient than the NICU. You don't have to leave during shift change, and can have several people in the room at the same time. We try to visit him in shifts, so most of the time someone is there. His nurse Susan from home came to see him tonight and brought him presents.
He hasn't had anything for pain since last night at 11:00pm.
Jennifer and Chris are driving home tonight. Chris has to work tomorrow and Jennifer has a test in Anatomy. She will be back later tomorrow. We have a room again for tomorrow night.
