At the PICU





Here is a picture of J.M. resting comfortably last night with Stanley. I want to see and comfort him and let him know that his Mommy and Daddy LOVE him VERY much.

Update #1: We were in with him from 8:30 AM - 2:00 PM and he is still somewhat nauseous. He spent part of the night dry heaving and we believe he equates the pain meds with the bad feeling in his tummy. We have encouraged him to take the pain meds so his head will feel better. The 4 mg's of Zofran does seem to be doing the job. He is now the "healthiest" kid in the PICU and on the top of the list for a room (a GREAT sign and relief). What Dr. Oaks did not tell us is that the area where he performed the surgery may cause some nausea. Dr. Oaks wants to see him keep everything down for a day before he will release him from the hospital.
