Kade had a great night again. He has not needed any additional maintenance fluid for over 24 hours. He is looking better and better each day. The little rascal is really moving his arm a lot when he is awake. Last night we were talking to the anesthesiologist and he pulled apart his breathing tube, and yanked off his EKG leed. It shows he has a lot of spirit but it kept mommy up all night wondering if he would do it again. Kade was able to come off the medication that helps to regulate his blood pressure. He seemed to really like that medication and after a few hours without it he would have to be put back on. But so far its been 5 hours and he is doing good.
We kissed our boy and sent him back to surgery this morning. The surgeon stopped by at 7 this morning and talked to us. He is very pleased that Kade's bowels are working. He said that Kade's body is giving all the right signs to close him. So we are hoping that this is final surgery that he will need for awhile. Which is good, because this morning one of the staff here asked us if we have a child in surgery. We said "Yes, under the last name Loseke". She replied back without even looking at her charts "Oh, yes Kade's parents." We know we have been here to long.
God bless all of you for everything. Your prayers, cards, gifts, and words of encouragement have made this journey we are on so much easier.
. . . . meanwhile, we pray . . . .
"Thanks Pastor, this line has really helped"
