Day Three

This morning Austin was still very weak and sick to his stomach when eating solid foods.

He really wanted the oxygen tube off his face--but his oxygen readings were going down below 90 quite a few times this morning. The medical staff has asked that Austin get up and around today because he still has some fluid in the bottom of his left lung. We've been working on that between his naps today (he's very tired). By late afternoon--he was at the point where they could remove his oxygen tubing and that really freed him up to be held and walked around instead of pushed in a wagon. He especially liked the bare face and often presented it to me (mommy) for kisses. I'm crossing my fingers he'll be ready to go home tomorrow. Although this morning when they were making the rounds, they said it may be Friday :(

Gotta run--Mom and son are going to skype daddy and sister soon!
