J.M. had a pretty good night, no dry heaving or vomit. Both of us dozed pretty good for a few hours through out the night. He stayed on a course of pain meds alternating between Tylenol and ibuprofen and had a dose of Zofran this morning. After the ibuprofen on an empty stomach he would get the nausea, so I don't think he will be having that anymore. As long as he continues to take in liquid and keep it down he may be able to be discharged today. He had some more popsickle and some apple juice. We took him for a ride down to the lobby to see the Christmas decorations. The doctors want him to be more active and we will be helping him do that.
Update #1:
He had been in bed pretty much the hole day. His pain had been managed as needed with Tylenol. I went to a nice area for adults and had a great 4 hour nap and when I came back at 6:30 PM after a wake-up call from J.M. he had some solid food for supper and has been keeping it down. He has had no Zofran this afternoon and this is now as needed. He in not on any IV drip, so he needs to stay hydrated and thus far has been drinking fluids. I'm thinking that if he has a good night...we are out of here tomorrow.
