Eli is home.

I arrived at the hospital this morning for my 24 hour shift with Eli and to relieve Todd. Eli had all his IVs out, his catheter out and was sitting on the fold-out couch for parents to sleep on. You can see Eli's bed to the far left of the photo.

I was amazed at how good he looked. Todd said he ate a good breakfast. He is tolerating his pain meds orally. The doctor said there was no reason to keep him in the hospital - so he sent us all home. We had a hospital bed delivered at Todd's and the home health nurse visited.

He is doing so well. He doesn't seem to be in any pain and Todd said he was crawling around tonight and didn't really want to be in the bed. We will continue to give him some pain meds - especially at night.

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers! God has his hand on Eli.
