Peds Ward

from the mom

M is continuing his path toward sainthood. I have no idea how someone can function that long on next-to-no sleep. I managed a migraine today which I finally kicked with drugs, a nap, and vitamin-laden expensive Naked Juice.

Ben still requires oxygen; they are attempting to wean him off of it but it has been slow-going. He will be there until at least tomorrow morning and M plans to stay with him (as he did last night). Yay for hospitals with DVD players and wireless internet.

My parents and brother are here helping out which has boosted Kyri's mood. At this point, we are trying to figure out transportation so that Kyri and I can go to my grandma's funeral and M can still have a vehicle. Since it is Sunday and all the car rental places in our area are closed and we have to leave at 5am tomorrow, it is pretty tricky. I've looked into flying home or taking the train. At this point, my guess is that my mom will have to drive us all the way home tomorrow night. I'm sure Kyri will be thrilled to spend 12 hours in the car.

Thankyou Mike for sending your two angels down to help OPA get through a dark day. Hope Ben is getting better each hour and that you can get some sleep Mike when the angels get home.
