We're home and all recovering / Curling toes

Hi all,

Thank you so much for asking about Aidan. As you know he had to get a shunt

for his hydrocephalus about a month ago. Well 2 wks later he got an

infection and we were back in the hospital for almost 3 weeks so the

antibiotics could work they're magic. About 6 days we got home he got a

stomach virus and threw up and had diarriah. Of course my worst fears was

another infection and we'd have to go back to the hospital. Thank God that

wasn't the case. We all shared his pain though because the entire family

got the virus. UGH..

He's doing great and we hope to maintain that course, no more infections I

pray... Even after all he's been through he still continues to have just

the most infectious spirit. Always full of smiles and talking and laughing

- he has alot to say for a 7mo old. He had all the doctors and nurses

wrapped around his finger. We had nurses stopping by to see him and play

with him that hadn't even cared for him - I guess news spreads. It's not

often you get a child in the PICU who's laughing! :-)

I've not had a chance to read everyones emails but alot has been going on I

see. Kori, I'm so sorry to hear about Merek but thank God he's doing well.

At therapy today, his therapist noticed his toes curl down a little because

they hang off the end of his shoes and its natural to turn the toes down to

fit around the shoes. He's getting new ones soon, end of our 3 months -

YAHOO. In the mean time she said to mesage the toes up while feeding him

and his hour out. I just wanted to throw that in as I've read before about

curling toe issues. So start rubbing those toesies upwards.

& Aidan

Jen-

I'm so glad Aidan is doing well. I was thinking about him after you

posted that he had the shunt infection, but I figured you'd let us

know what was happening when you got a chance. Sounds like you've

had a rough few weeks. Hope everything gets better now!
