Day 3 morning update

Well that was a fun evening. We knew it would be rough, but at least it wasn't as bad as we had steeled ourselves up for.  Basically he wasn't keeping much down and he went back on the IV for fluids in the middle of the night.  Luckily the peak of his swelling seems to have been overnight when his eyes are supposed to be closed so we pretty blessed to avoid much of the panic and stress that goes with not seeing.  There was a couple of times when he was up vomiting that he would ask us to open his eyes, but he was sleepy enough that once we cleaned him back up and put his music on he'd go right back to sleep. 

I went back to the hotel around 6:30 this morning to shower and grab breakfast and a few other things we needed.  Isaiah woke up soon after I got back and immediately wanted a tour around the unit again to go see Alvin and the Chipmunks, Thomas, and Mickey.  We tried to get him to walk around a bunch to help get things moving in his body.  It's been working and his swelling has come down so both eyes are open at least a little bit this morning.  He got his first bath in a few days and was not happy about it, but at least we got the surgery smell off of him.  His incision is looking really good. We had a little oozing last night, but not much.  He's not quite back to his normal self, but we can tell his energy level is up.  God willing we won't have too bad of a drive back to Atlanta.
