Kaden is doing great this morning. They removed Kaden's left side chest tube just about an hour ago and it came out with a little "lung snot" they call it. It was so gross. Good thing Scott wasn't here to see that. Kaden said we should have recorded it. We are being moved out of ICU today! YEAH! He is so happy. One more step till HOME! He had a good breakfast this morning - scrambled eggs and bacon and a bowl of Frosted Flakes. I think he inhaled his breakfast.
Last night, they wanted to keep the feeding tube in so they could feed him overnight to up his caloric intake and so they got him all hooked up to this delicious looking formula stuff and he said I can taste it and the nurse said, "Oh you are probably just burbing it up a little." But then he started getting a little sick to his stomach and so she decided to stop the feeds and pull the tube out. So she told Kaden he could pull the tube out and so he pulled and the end of it was in his throat! He was tasting it. They figured that he must have coughed up the tube or something because it wasn't in his stomach anymore.
Anyway, I will let you know our new room number when they get us all settled. We are shooting still for Friday to be home and hoping for Wednesday!
Thanks!
