As if we need any other drama to make this week more trying..

This morning when we walked in to the room, someone had gone and packed everything up. All of our personal items from the closet and drawers were jammed in to bags and piled on to a wagon and under his crib. It looked like he was about to wheel out the door. The nurse was clueless about it though, she said he wasn’t going anywhere. It was very unsettling. They wonder why I feel like I can’t go home and rest – every time I am gone something happens and then nobody can explain it.
It turns out that due to staffing issues, they were about to move Brendan to another room. They packed him up and he was ready to go and they changed their mind at the last minute. They didn’t even think it was a good idea to call me and let me know that he was being moved or that all my stuff was packed for me. Even when they didn’t move him, they could have warned me before I show up to the hospital and think that I had been robbed when all my stuff was missing (or just packed).
Brendan had a pretty rough and uncomfortable night and was unhappy this morning. Even though he finally fell asleep while we were there with him, his cpap ventilator alarm kept ringing like mad because the mask wasn’t fitting right and it was reading a pressure leak.
After a total meltdown and a mask change, he seemed to get some rest and his numbers looked better than ever.

Add to that a doctor on duty today who answers questions or attempts at conversation with as few words as possible and I was feeling seriously crabby. He indicated that Brendan was making progress, however slow. All this misery for him will be over eventually.

Trevor is getting familiar with his high chair a little at a time. We brought it in to the living room and took the tray off and let him just sit in it a while.

Gramma was talking to Trevor but Eins thought she was talking about treats so he listened in too.

Trevor was having fun in his chair

Since he was comfortable, we added the tray. He was fine with it since it held up mirror baby

He didn’t look so small in the chair until we put the tray on!
