Max had a very sleepy day. The little guy really likes his snoozes, and he's got his night and day a little upside down. Add to that the eye exam he had and the nose suction after an out-the-nose spit up and Max was just wiped out. His parents were happy to offer snuggles to the little sleepy head.
We are currently waiting on a surgery date for Max's G-tube placement - this will hopefully be next week. He will be having his surgery under spinal anesthetic in order to avoid the complications of intubation during general anesthetic. We certainly don't want a repeat of what happened post-hernia surgery. When Max is transfered over to Children's Hospital for his surgery he may be waving his final goodbye to the St. Boniface NICU. It's possible, that because most of the specialized staff surrounding this procedure are at the Children's Hospital, that Max will remain there throughout his healing and then be discharged home from there. More on those details once the surgery is booked though. The talk of home has everyone quite excited. Max has no idea what the word outside those hospital doors holds for him. We're very much looking forward to showing him.
