Friday Morning Update (10/19)

Greyson had a pretty good night's sleep. He fell asleep around 7pm and woke for about 30 minutes at 11:30pm, then was awake again from 4am-6am, and finally woke up about 8am. He hasn't complained about much pain. He really doesn't like the splint that Dr. Spaeth made special for him. We told her it might be an issue so she wrapped the splint in blue tape with cars on it. He still isn't much of a fan. We found that if we covered it up along with the IV and other monitor with a blanket he didn't worry much about it as much. He even started covering them up.

Playing Peek-a-boo!

He has been unhooked from all monitors now and seems to be dealing with the splint better since he is now mobile. He just finished up breakfast and is playing here in the room. We are getting ready to head down to the new play room and let him have some fun before we check out.

The plan is to go to RMH by noon today and just hang out for a couple of days. Tralaine and Andy will get here tonight and we will meet up with them tomorrow. The Runners Expo is tomorrow and then the marathon on Sunday. I will make another post sometime after the run Sunday.

If anyone is interested in donating to our team for the marathon I think you still can. We are $225 away from our $1500 goal.

Take care and thanks for everything,
Brooke, Michael, and Greyson
