in between

Mason had a pretty good night - as good as you can expect in the hospital with someone waking you up every couple of hours!!  And the word on the street is that Lamar's donuts are comin' his way. Sweet!!

Mason's surgeon came by this morning - his next cleaning is scheduled for 8am tomorrow morning.  After she goes in she will know what the next step is.  We are still waiting on the lab culture report. Preliminary reports showed strep, and it would be good news if that is all there is.  The doc said it is likely to show staph as well, so we will wait and see.  She has a plan for whatever the results are, we just have to wait on that to see how to attack.  She would not give me a go-home scenario/time frame yet. She said we would discuss after tomorrow.

We have seen some familiar faces since we've been here.  Mason's favorite care assistant has been in, and a couple of the same nurses he's had before.  Sadly, the receptionist in the surgery waiting area recognized us!  I could have gone all my life without being in a children's hospital.....but if we have to be in one, I will say this is a good place to be.  We are fortunate to have this available so close to home.
