Room with a view

OK not really but more of a view than the PICU room's view of another building and roof top.

Yes Cooper is now out of ICU and on the Oncology floor - in a "regular " room.

They have put him on another type of pain med and it is in a pump so that he can press a button when the pain starts again and get quicker relief. Yes the machine is programmed so he can't "overmedicate" himself.

He seems to be resting better than he has since the surgery. And that is good - he needs to rest now before the next challenge.

What that challenge is, we won't know until the pathology reports on the tumor come back and we find out what the treatment will be. Hopefully we won't have to wait longer than tomorow, Monday.

That's it till later - Now go hug your kids.

Love,
rsc

  2. Thinking of you and praying that things will continue to improve. Wesley was confirmed last night and we all said a special prayer for Cooper during the Mass. What a perfect time when the Holy Spirit is present in the Mass to lift up those we love. Warm thoughts and love for all of you, Sarah
