LOGAN!

Logan is doing great. Both boys were sick for a while after Logan got home. In fact both developed fevers on the way home from the hospital! As soon as they were well it was straight back to work for my mom. Poor lady. She never sleeps, I think.

So both boys are doing well and since we've been having lots of company the last two weeks they have been fawned over as well.

Update on Logan

Hi Everyone,

Logan is not home quite yet. He was supposed to come home on Saturday but the doctors were concerned because his white cell count was elevated. He's also running fevers periodically around 100 degrees. Hopefully we'll see him home soon and he won't have to go home with any IV antibiotics to administer (which are for six weeks!).

Thank you all for your concern,

Anne, Lin's daughter

Logan Update

Logan had his pacemaker placement Wednesday afternoon and it is working great. He was transferred out of the PICU today and had his chest tubes and temporary pacer wires removed. After surgery he was dependent on the external pacemaker, I wasn't even allowed to hold him for fear it would become disconnected. They had to use restraints for his own saftey, he pulled out some lines with his feet the first night even with the restraints. I had to sit right next to him and try to deter him and comfort him, if I was there he could have a little more freedom. I felt so bad, he must have thought he landed in an even worse orphanage than before. Now we are both enjoying that he can be held and move around more. We hope to be discharged this weekend, it will be so good to be home! Cody has done well with all that has been going on and has been very busy with Dad and his sisters. He found the hospital very interesting and really enjoyed the peds playroom.

Some miscellaneous fun!

BATH TIME!!!
BROTHERLY LOVE!

Oh! And pictures of Cody!

Logan's progress

Logan will be going in for a second surgery tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 p.m. He will be having a pacemaker implanted. If the pacemaker is not a good fit for him (for reasons I'm not sure on) a different pacemaker will be used instead and that would involve a THIRD surgery the next day. He's a trooper though!
