Sketch in Time

We left the hospital at 10 last night. We have never seen Coleman so nauseous. We took 30 minutes to get him to the car. After he fell asleep we came home and he woke up in his bed this morning, which was such a relief to him. It's clearly better for him to be in his home where things are quiet and doctors aren't trying to come in every few minutes.

It is good to know his base line labs are good and his organs are doing their thing. It does give us more confidence while we wait. He's still in a lot of pain and it's gotten to the point that any touch hurts him. His nerves are just frayed.

I've spent some time reading the blog from another family from Colorado who have experienced the same thing, just with more toxins and more kids (8). I'm hoping for a phone consult with Dr. Shoemaker this week to talk about the labs and next steps.

Thanks to the friends who brought by sketching and art stuff, both boys have been drawing. Spencer has been the resident artist for several years and Coleman the resident designer, but sketching seems to keep Coleman focused and concentrating on a task. His vision has been so effected that reading is no longer an option. He said I could add one of his pictures to the blog.

Hopefully tonight will be quiet and restful for this artist.
