At one day post surgery, Graeme seems to be recovering well and we are so thankful!!
Despite heavy sedation, he had a bit of a feisty morning. He would startle frequently, move both his arms and his legs and at times arch his back. Although he does not appear to be in any pain, the doctors are concerned that this amount of movement may disrupt his surgical repair. With this in mind they decided to change his postion (putting him on his side) and give him a muscle relaxant.
By mid-afternoon, he was much calmer and resting comfortably. He was so comfortable that the nurses allowed Daddy to touch him and talk to him in a quiet voice.
Mommy and Daddy have been taking turns rotating from home to the hospital. Big Sister, Mariana, cannot wait to meet her baby brother. We are very blessed to have my parents in town to help out with Mariana at home.
