Moved into Peds on Day Three

John getting ready for bed

Watching "Chip 'n' Dale" for the 3rd time! :)

7:19pm- I have been sitting here by John's bed with the laptop reading him the comments and emails. He looked a lot more cheerful afterwards. Thanks for all the encouraging words!
6:55 pm- He is asking for his pain meds. We want him to walk some steps in his room before going to bed tonight. First we want his pain under control in bed, before trying to get out again though.
5:50 pm- John's dinner just came. He has mac n' cheese and green beans.
4:40pm- John is back in bed after his first walk to the playroom. He was able to see the yellow frog in the fish tank along with the fish on his walk. All the nurses were cheering him on as he walked down the hall. He is definitely in more pain with this surgery than the last one.

In the playroom

Resting after his walk
3:20pm -John is still sleeping. He didn't sleep well last night. Not much news, which is good.
We just were moved into Pediatrics. Now that our little man is in bed, he says he feels better. The last hour or more John was saying off and on, that his back is hurting him. We turned out the lights so hopefully he will sleep now.
