A Welcome Slow Day

Today, Sunday, two weeks after first arriving in Boston we had a nice slow day that still had its progress and milestones. Wes had a good night sleep in his new room in the cardiac recovery unit. It’s much quieter, darker and more comfortable. Wes was able to leave the floor in a stroller for a trip down to the lobby so Dad could get lunch.

After some playtime in the crib, sitting up of course, Wes had dinner and then went to sleep.

Wes CribTomorrow the pacing team will evaluate if the temporary pacing wires can be removed, which are the last of the tubes wires still on him. After the wires are removed they will schedule an echocardiogram and then we’ll be on the fast track for discharge. We hope to be home later his week, maybe even earlier. It’s very satisfying to know that we are on the home stretch, especially when the outcome has been so good. We couldn’t have done it without the support of all of you.

Meanwhile, back at home… Henry walks with James toΒ Uma’s house.
