Today Grayson finally had his surgery. We are sooo thankful that it went very well. His blood was controlled through medication. We are at the hospital and will be here for 3 days and then to the Ronald McDonald house for 7 days.
Gray is doing better, but his throat is very sore. He drank apple juice right when he woke up, but did not keep it down, The numbness is wearing off, so it is hurting more and more. The nurse just came in and gave him some pain medicine.
The worst part is that he has to monitored every 12 hrs for his blood levels, and that will tell us if and how much more Humate (blood meds) he needs. But the problem is, the 12 hr mark is at 11 pm, and he has to give blood, and then get the meds at 12 midnight. And then in the morning he has to have his blood levels checked again around 6 am. Not sure about all of this medical stuff, but 12-6 am is simple math (not 6hrs). anyway, we will keep talking the the nurse.
Here are a few pics from (Friday - when he was supposed to have it) today's surgery. Also he got a new monster truck today from one of the pediatric specialists from the hematology floor. He was very excited!
