Again, Kathy and I were greeted with those big beautiful brown eyes and a wave. The abdominal cavity drain tube was removed yesterday. Jadon's vitals continue to be within normal limits. No differences were observed in the ultrasound of his abdominal area today from previous examinations. Jadon finally got to have a small amount of a slushy today. He may also be allowed to eat today. He still is unable to verbalize his wants/comments. He has been using a small white board and a computer to assist in that endeavor. There still needs to be some interpretation skills involved as he is very weak which shows in his penmanship and typing skills. His sense of humor is beginning to show indicating he is starting to feel better. Physical therapy is being administered to help with his muscle tone. His pain medication is being tapered off which allows more interaction time. He still has some skin issues that require daily attention on his back, thigh and pelvic areas. His next round of chemotherapy has been postponed to next week to allow some recovery time. He will remain in the PICU for a few more days if all continues to go well.
God bless everyone for their support and prayers.
