This Day: A Much Better Ending

As we come to the end of the day, J is feeling much better, looking much better, and smelling...well...kind of better.  His blood pressure is back to a happy place without having to give larger amounts of IV fluids over a short period (called a bolus).  He has eaten food, but only food from home (we received a call from nutrition services wondering why he hadn't ordered any breakfast or lunch).  Picky kid.  He was able to FaceTime with some of his friends from school.  He took a sponge bath/shower.  He would smell better if the hospital used soap that had any fragrance, but it's pretty bland.   He is playing games on his Kindle and took a quiz to see how he would be sorted at Hogwarts:  Ravenclaw.

We still need to wait for more detailed information on what type of bacteria he is infected with.  If he holds this course, we could potentially be out this weekend.  For now, I'm expecting a pretty nice night.    Enough excitement for this week!
