Waiting for Poop

Well Tyler is doing so well we just heard we can go home after some good poop. He is bright, alert, and awake quite often. As of 11 am he's eaten about 350 cc of milk in a 12 hour period. He's on track to eat over 700 cc today, slightly more than he did before surgery. His pain seems to be very mild, mainly when we move him around. He hasn't had morphine since yesterday afternoon and only a few doses of Tylenol.

The parents are doing ok as well. We are very tired for not having any sleep Thursday or Friday night. We did get a few hours last night. It was a big help to finally see our normal Tyler last night. We were very reassured and relieved.

No one knows what to really think about his behavior post-op. He hasn't exhibited the tremors since then and is acting his normal self now. No one can say he won't do that again, but they can't explain why he did it in the first place.
