Hello everyone!!

I just got home from my turn in the hosptial (I've been there since yesterday at 9:30am), as Michael is going to sleep there tonight.

I feel both exhausted and exhilarated at the same time!

His procedure/surgery went well. It took him awhile to actually wake up from it, but he's doing fine now.

They drained as much fluid as they could, and then left a chest tube in to keep draining what they couldn't get out. It ends up that the pnemonia has spread quite a bit and actually killed his lung in three parts. The doctors have assured us that this is not a big deal b/c he is so young, but it still sounds so scary!!

They are giving him some type of medicine into the chest tube b/c he had quite a few blood clots that were blocking their way into getting all of the fluid out. So as the clots get broken down, you can see them come through the chest tube

He is holding up so well!! When his pain medication is working he is his happy normal self, joking around and wanting to do everything himself. Then the medication wears off and he starts moaning and groaning and it's just so sad.

thank you so much for all the cards you have sent him in the hospital He has gotten so many that all of the nurses and doctors are coming in to read them all! They can't believe that he has so many friends and family : who care about him so much!

He asked me before I left "Mommy, will I get more cards tomorrow?" He sure is getting to be one spoiled little boy there He's gotten cards from everyone here, along with Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Pluto, Mike W (from Monsters Inc.), Donald Duck, Stitch and Minnie!

I am going to try to spend some quality time with T, M and B here tonight. They are being such troopers themselves. They are getting up and helping to make their own lunches, coming home to an empty house most days It makes me feel sad for them. that is why I wanted to make sure G was doing ok before I left so I could get home before they got home from school.

Well I'm off for a bit, see ya later

I am so glad he is doing better The lung thing does sound very scary...it is a good thing that they caught it and could do the surgery to drain it....I hope you have a nice night with the kids and hope you get some rest

Hi Liz it's great to hear that G is enjoying the cards-more on thje way(who's his favorite Disney characters??)!!!!!! and that he's doing OK!!!! Hope it continues to get better and that the Chest Tube comes out soon!!!!!

I have to work at our ER tonight-so Kayla I don't know how much computer time I'll get-hopefully some time But I've never worked in the ER so I have no idea

Hope everyone else has a good night -I'm off to fight the traffic-Ughhhh I hope it's not too bad

 

[~queenie~]

liz,

I am glad to hear g is doing better. I can't imagine how hard this is on you. if you need anything please call me..

 

[kaylajr]

Liz
thanks for the update

Do the Drs say it isn't a big deal about the lung cause he is young and it will heal or what??
killing part of a lung sound Very Scary

I wish we lived closer so i could help you out with the other kiddos

well I am here for awhile if you show up
hope it is a quite ER nihgt

 

[Lyn5]

are you still here Kayla....your light is out...but I figure you may be hiding and doing the mod thing

My DH just got a new phone from work, I think this is it:

It is a phone, takes digital photos, digital videos and get this....you can go on the web from anywhere...I was able to get on the DIS it was fast to read...but it would take forever to type

 

[ckckc2000]

well I am here for awhile if you show up
hope it is a quite ER nihgt

It was a crazy night in the ER-patients waiting outside the ER waiting room-and patients lined up in the halls waiting to be seen-patients screaming and crying and I didn't know how to do anything there-til they sent me down to a lower ER-and it was more like a urgent care clininc-mostly the kids were Discharged to home-simple stuff

but it took us til 0230 til we got them cleared out and now I'm back up on my floor for teh last 4 hrs of my shift-glad all the noise and stimuli is gone and done

 

[ckckc2000]

OK I have to get going now-0400 labs to go and get drawn-be back later

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

Good morning.

Wow, Kim, you had a nice long turn at being last!!!

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

And on our trip I finally did it!!! It wasn't easy but I did it!!!


I took the credit card and cell phone away from our oldest DS-he's almost 20 and has got to do some things on his own

I did go and buy him a pay as you go phone and the 1st 30 min-but after that he's on his own-amazing how much he doesn't use the phone now
