Hip-Hip-Hooray and Praise the LORD!!
We're home!! We arrived home late this afternoon and we're happy to be (despite the good care we always receive at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin).
This photo is from last night. Rees was sitting in the chair and eating well and feeling pretty good.
During the night, he began oozing blood at the openings where the rods are inserted into his head. The nurse was concerned so the on-call docs said they should wrap his head in guaze.
He looked like a wounded soldier!
He was a lot happier when they removed all that guaze!
Dr. Denny came to see how Rees was doing and he said that Rees was free to go home ...
(with multiple care instructions and supplies, of course)
... when it was time for all the ports to be removed, Rees wanted to help the nurse!
He helped her wipe the tape with the 'de-stickying' pads and he also helped her with the band-aids. He was a very good helper!
Needless to say, he was quite happy!!
