A small step back...
Kaleb is still fighting hard. We got a call on the way to the hospital that Kaleb's blood count was low, so they are going to give him a blood transfusion, infact they are doing that right now. He has been slowing down on his movement in the last 24 hours and they think that it could be a result from the low blood count. He is also having some stridor when he breathes too. When I walked into his room, I got a little scared because of how loud he was breathing. He also had som spit up around his mouth too. So I cleaned it all up and I saw that there was a tiny, tiny amount of blood in the spit up. The nurses don't seemed too concerned about it, so I guess that is a good sign.
Tomorrow will be Josh's first Fathers Day. I think we will end celebrating it here at the hospital for my Dad too. That is what we did for Mother's Day. Maybe I will bake a cake when I get home tonight.
We have received an very LARGE amount of pakages. I took a picture of all of the stuff we got today and I have been trying to upload them, but for some reason my camera is acting weird. I will try to post it up later tonight. We rcv'd so many packages that my ENTIRE couch is filled and stacks up about 4 feet high all the way accross!!! WOW! WE ARE SO THANKFUL FOR ALL OF YOU.
Kaleb just threw up, alot. He looks like he feels really sick today. The throw up was kind of brownish...This is the color that blood is when It is old. Hopefully it is brown just from the last bleed that he had. This just happened while I was in the middle of typing this. He started throwing up on his back and luckily the nurse was standing right by him to turn him to his back. I am so afraid that he is going to aspirate and then develope pneumonia (sp)... That would be horrible!
Tomorrow I am excited to go to church. I feel like there is something that I need to hear tomorrow that is going speak to my heart. I will be saying an extra special prayer tonight for all you Dads out there.
