Day 32

32 days and counting. Time has gone so fast but so slow. As the days go on. I become more and more homesick. I am praying for the day when we get to go home. We have met some amazing people along the way in which we will truly miss when we leave but I miss everyone back home!! I cannot wait to show my man off to the world!!! Still sprinting, has had some good ones and not so good ones. We want more good ones. But Liam has to do it! He started feeds today. After -12 days of no food just nutrients and fats they started him back. It's not breast milk but it is a formula that is used on patients that have chylous drainage from their chest tubes! It has low fat.. They are hoping two things. One it mAkes him stronger so he can get off the vent and two his chest tube drainage does not increase with feeds!! Lets avoid surgery little Liam!! Physical therapy stopped by today. I love seeing Liam do his little exercises. He is so precious and his facial expressions are to die for!! Valium was weaned down today. So he is doing fantastic with his withdrawals. So proud! One of our fav nurses was on tonight and she let me help give him a bath. It was so Memorable! They usually do it in the middle of the night when we are not there but tonight she said let's do it. It's a sponge bath but its still soap and water!! :). Chris unfortunately stopped away from his room and missed it but she is on again tomorrow night and as long as he has a good day she will let Chris give him one!! New memories to cherish!!
