I have a feeling that Kade knows he will be down for the next couple of days, because he was up from 3:30-7am laughing and playing. He finally settled down in my arms about 7 and we both slept until about 9:30.
Hanna and Daddy got here about 10am and Kade was ready to go again! He certainly loves his big sister. We went for a wagon ride and then down to lunch. Kade sat in the wagon content and happy while we all ate. We came back to his room around noon and surgery called to say that they wanted to take him early, so we packed up and headed down (in the wagon of course) to surgery. They took him back at about 1:15.
Kade will be getting an epidural instead of narcotic anesthesia today, and it will stay in for about 3 days. The surgeon, as well as us, would like to avoid going through withdrawal again. If the epidural doesn't seem to work, they will use a narcotic. After surgery we will be going to another new room, either back to the PICU or to 5th floor which is called Intermediate, for closer observation.
As always, we will keep you posted when we know more.

I am so sorry guys , I had this big speech all planned out, but my fingers just will not cooperate today. Thinking and praying for Kadde and all of you during this very difficult time.
ReplyDeleteI had small seizure 3X today and my finger are just numb. Try and remember it's not why, It's how you deal with the trial that God is watching. I pray for Kades strength and all of yours'also.
LOVE, RANDY \
