Baltimore: Day 12 (July 29)


Today was a day that we more of...good day. Really the only thing that happened was that Robbie was able to have his first real bowel movement and what that means, other than the fact that the smell made a nurse gag, is that he can now get the tube out of nose that is sucking stuff out of his stomach and then we can slowly start to get him eating. Right now he is on TPN, supplement, to get his nutrients but food is the best thing for that.

Tomorrow we will get some more visitors as Mimi is bring down Great Grandma Jo and Aunt Cindy Lou. They are in New Jersey visiting from Montana and are making the trip down to Baltimore and staying the night. As always, it is really nice to have visitors, as it just breaks up the day and the grind a little bit.

We are now officially done with one full week in the hospital and hopefully things will go as planned and we just have five more. As long as that sounds, we are looking at it the other way and really surprised how quick the first week went and we are one week closer to getting our little guy home and back to our lives, with no bladders on the outside.
