And Henry is on his own -- no IV (thought there is still one in his foot, just in case....but it is locked off), no drains, no pacing wires, no oxygen, no feeding tube, no support....Only a couple of monitors on his foot, chest and belly to keep track of heart rate, breathing rate and oxygen saturation levels.....and here is how good he looks (he is on Hal's right). Our happy, smiley lovely little Henry is back!! His colour is no longer appreciably different from Owen's (prior to surgery, he looked a little darker.... related to the mixing of 'blue' and 'red' blood). It was so so nice not to see "the defeated", tired look today. Henry was almost all smiles (...and, as a result, so were we).
Magnus spent the day, once again, with our good friends Kyle and Natasja and their little cutie Zoe. Zoe is ready for some hugs and playing..... Magnus seems to take some time to warm up.... but once he does..... It's nooooo problem. Thank you so much to Kyle and Nastasja for taking care of Magnus for several days during our time in Edmonton. We sure appreciate it.
Tomorrow Henry will have another echo to check that everything looks good. Things continue to move in the right direction. We are thrilled, relieved, & so proud of the progress Henry continues to make.
Thank you all for your messages and support. It has made a huge difference for us.
