Friday PM - Last night I stopped by the hospital and was able to hold Adam for about an hour. He was fairly agitated when I got there but quickly settled down when I put him in my lap. It's tough putting him back to bed when he relaxes and looks so content, but a wood rocking chair doesn't make a very comfortable bed.

Today was better than yesterday. So far, there is no sign of bacteria in the blood cultures, and he was calm the entire time I was there so I was able to harass the hospital staff. Actually I spoke at length with the doctors and two of the nurse administrators about where he's going next. They are ready to transfer him to the Progressive Care Unit, which is where we wanted him, but there were no beds available today. Monday will likely be the day he transfers. I also spoke to the therapists and child life specialists who work with him on bottle feeding, movement, and general entertainment. He should be worn out by the time they get through with him.

If I don't post before Monday, that means nothing significant has happened. Here's hoping for a quiet, uneventful, weekend...
