Bad news is that the chest x-ray show that the phuemonia has gotten worse.
Good news is that he's breathing more on his own and has lots of good coughs.
His fever went up and down - they've got plenty of tylonol on tap.
He had a good day - lots of visitors. Rachal read him a book (a couple times) and he loved that. Joni was here. Jean Cavanaugh dropped by - she works here and came accross Gabe's name in the computer system and came to track us down. Lauren came with Alex and Sophie - while they were here, Gabe had some very 'awake' moments. Sophie thinks that this would be better if Gabe were missing school. I was able to tell him a story or two. He's nodding yes and no sometimes. He got a message from Declan. FYI folks, Declan threw up on his bed while on vacation with the fam. That made Gabe happy to hear - that he's not the only sick kid. Thanks for the note Declan.
I think Gabe is just in survival mode - doesn't wake up too much - coughing like a champ - no tears - no fear - just a real survivor. Knows he needs to stay calm, might as well relax.
Nan's falling asleep on the couch and I'm going to retire to the hospitality suite. See ya tomorrow.

Sounds like things are maybe getting a little better. How are the girls? Where are they? I know we're far away, but is there anything we can do to help? Logan, Mack and I could come down on Saturday and hang with the girls??! Would that help?
ReplyDeleteThanks Ally - we'll let you know - my folks have the girls now and they're coming over on Saturday - they'll probably come here to see Gabe and then head home - Nancy's folks are also coming so we are covered. Things are getting better just have to be patient.
