Brendan&#8217;s new day nurse started today, so he had an adjustment to make. Trevor was the one that was just the little terror though. He was extremely emotional, he was Mr. Instant Meltdown over every little thing and every noise that Brendan made. Brendan wore his PMV for the whole morning but it upset Trevor so much that I had to take him to his room for a time out. It was hard to try to manage him and yet answer questions and help Brendan and his nurse settle in.<br \/>\nWe had our meeting with the state about Brendan&#8217;s nursing hours, and we get 3 more months with no reduction in hours. Next quarter, they will reduce at least 8hrs if Brendan stays off the vent.<\/p>\n<p>While we dealt with our tough day, Heather and the girls went downtown to check out the Children&#8217;s Museum. I think the final word was that it was designed for kids younger than them, but they still managed to enjoy themselves in a few areas.<br \/>\nPelting your sister with koosh balls out of a big machine had to have been fun!<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/projectbat.com\/minibat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/242ak20.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19\" title=\"Week 42 - 242ak20.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/projectbat.com\/minibat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/242ak20.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/projectbat.com\/minibat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/242ak19.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19\" title=\"Week 42 - 242ak19.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/projectbat.com\/minibat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/242ak19.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There were some neat little gadgets to play with.
