In case anyone is curious, his meds are: Lasix, a diuretic to help his body process any extra fliud that might build up around his lungs or heart; Captopril to keep his blood pressure in check; and a small dose of Aspirin as a blood thinner. They are all orally given. He will be on those for the forseeable future; he'll outgrow the dose of Lasix and Captopril and then they'll reevaluate their necessity. Aspirin he'll probably be on forever.
Here's a minute of video with Coley letting you know how he feels about being home (and eating rice cereal). In general, he seems REALLY happy for the time being. It's kind of weird; he's really quick to smile and laugh. He's been reaching for things and playing like never before, shaking the rattle on purpose and hitting things to make noise. Let's hope he keeps that up!!
Okay, more soon. THANK YOU for your love and support and thoughts and energy this week and beyond. Really and truly, we couldn't have done it without you all there.
