New Pad

Well, Jackson walked to the toilet today!  Woohoo!  And got a few more tubes out, including the central line.   He still looks pale and hasn't eaten anything except popsicles and a little bit of jello until now. 

We had him sit up on the couch for a while and tried to ge him interested in some of his goodies.   He tolerated our attempt : )

Now, we are in our "new" room on the sixth floor ... the pediatric unit.    I was expecting a little bit larger of a room with a window.   Hmm.   It's a tad claustrophobic.  To be fair there is a window ... near the bathroom ... around the corner from jack's bed.   We have an old tv in a beat up armoire with a really bad picture, and water stains on the ceiling.  Very quiet.   Kinda stuffy.    I think I miss the CHSU : )    The good news is that Jackson is eating a grilled cheese sandwich, some french fries, and apple sauce as I type this. 
This will make going home in a couple of days even sweeter.  

There isn't room for two of us to sleep here : (   Unless we make a pallet on the floor like the nurse suggested.   HA.   So, I am going to head home for tonight  and come back right away in the morning.  Colin and Jack are going to have a slumber party.
