Halloween 2010

Lalo had several little changes today. They weaned his hydromorphone (narcotic) a bit. This is a good thing, but also challenging because we have to watch him go through withdrawal symptoms like trembling and vomiting. They are also weaning down his oxygen slightly. Lalo is still having issues with the feeding including throwing up (hard to tell what's withdrawal and what's feeding related) and difficulty digesting. However, they did go up to 3 cc's on his feeds plus a few pieces of Halloween candy here and there ;-)

Tell the nurses to put a little gnocchi in Little Lo's feeding tube. If he is like Sarah he will not turn this away!
