Day three


This pic was taken shortly after surgery. I didn't expect to be able to hold him so soon after surgery!

We did not get another roommate tonight, thankfully. We put Elijah to sleep at his usual bedtime and Dan and I watched a movie on the other side of the curtain. Elijah had a really good day today. He got restless occasionally, as any 2-year-old would while lying in a hospital prison, but he really did well.

He will get his catheter removed on Monday to see how his bladder tolerates being catheter-less. Best case scenario, we could be heading home by Tuesday. This means a lot more Veggie Tales and cartwheels to keep our little boy preoccupied.

Dan and I just watched a beautiful sunset beyond the city. The view from our room is amazing! I guess the hospital does bring some good things? We are heading to bed in hopes of being somewhat rested for another day in the hospital..
