Two weeks inpatient and we are finding a new normal. Isolation was lifted Thursday morning but we didn't get our act together fast enough to make it to school. Our days are pretty lazy and boring. We have lots of visitors in and out all day. The nurses do vitals every 4 hours but we are on our own most of the day. The Athertons came to visit yeaterday and that was a wonderful treat! Not gonna lie...I'm going stir crazy in this room! I've even read a novel this week and everyone knows how much I dislike reading. I'd much rather be busy or doing something outdoors. I am getting a lesson in patience and slowing down.
After a million hospital stays, Owen just discovered the mirror in the bedside table. So exciting to find this little treasure.
Physical therapy comes by daily and we have to get creative to motivate Owen to work out. Whatever we are doing is working because he is actually excited to work out!
We are hanging in there and trying not to be "waiting for the call" but living life the best we can.
Back home...
The kids spent Veterens Day at the zoo with cousins. Carson is home sick so he missed out. It was Logan's first trip to the zoo and he loved it! Owen was never a fan.."oh wow..another animal" (sarcasm inserted here). Logan loved the lizards the most but the tiger was pretty cool!
They are preparing to move next weekend. We had friends and family helping pack. We discussed swapping places for he move but its cheaper just to pay movers to do the job. We can do this!
170 days on the transplant list!
