Alex Update

Grandpa stops in to brighten Alex's day. He brought cheese and egg taco but still could not get Alex to eat. Well we had another 24 hours of ups and downs.

Alex did well last night. Sitting up and ‘playing’ with the nurses until after midnight.
He slept through the night and then got to enjoy breakfast with Grandpa.

Unfortunately it is the ‘eating thing’ that is keeping him in the hospital. He still has not eaten since Saturday night a week ago.
They tried the feeding tube of the nose without success. Next they are taking about a tube directly into the small intestine.

His seizures remain ‘below the surface’ but he is continuing to seize. His medicines appear to be working. The doc thinks we are past worrying about seizures from medicine withdrawal.

So we are focused on getting him to eat, walk around and then we could home. I expect with will be Tuesday or Wednesday at the earliest.

Thanks for all the notes.

I am going back to relieve Marycke. I will spend

the night and then be able to come back during the day to work on technoDOCTOR and PSU.

Alex self protrait. He likes to take photos of himself.
