Monday, Day 30
Not sure what happened to Monday’s entry but I will do it again…
The weekend was a little scarey for Hayden. Going home to a strange place, sleeping in a strange bed and seeing these very large dogs walking around above him when he was on the floor, seemed to be too much for him. He would scream in terror if Rick or myself would leave his side and getting him to sleep was a long ordeal. We would have to stay right by the crib until he would fall asleep.
As the days passed he grew more relaxed with Abby, and his surroundings. We took a small walk on Sunday which he enjoyed (and he kept his mask on the whole way) and played the rest of the day in the livingroom which was gated off to the dogs. As he got up and around the house in his walker, he seemed to get more comfortable with the house. We don’t know if he lost his memory from the morphine or if he was just confused with what was going on.
He is still on quite a few medicines (5) and we have to flush his hickman lines with a medication to prevent infection in his lines since he had a rip in one of his lumins just before he was to leave Children’s Hospital. He is eating well and we have seen normal stools each day, without the help of drugs. Yah!
