Silly Santa

I can't believe tomorrow is already Wednesday! I feel at ease because Nolan has been having a good week and had one of his better days today. Not much as far as medication has changed. He is on the sedation meds every two hours and on a very low dose of beta blockers. He is on aspirin and heparin to stay anticoagulated, and on a low dose of oxygen because of his cold. Matt said that they will most likely remove the oxygen some time tonight.
So, we are on our way back to a happy Nolan. Matt said he did PT today and did OK. Tomorrow, Matt is going to attempt to put him in a swing. It will be a nice change for Nolan.
We have become friends with another couple the past few weeks. Their daughter, Faith, had a successful catheterization done today to check for clots and has been cleared to be placed back on the transplant list. Faith just turned 1 and has a 3 year old brother, so Matt and I can relate very well with her mom and dad during these stressful moments in life. I am so happy Faith had the strength to make it through her surgery today and is back on course to receiving the gift of life! She is a miracle, just like Mr. Nolan!
Today my mom, Riley and I went to the mall to see Santa! It was the first time Riley really got it...so naturally, like most kids, she was curious but also freaked out. The picture says it all. Santa looks great, though!
Well, almost half way through the week. Can't wait to see my boys!!
