Great News for Kane

No surgery! Kane has been a new baby the last three days. It has been wonderful but it is weird getting used to it. I have to get used to what he wants now when he fusses. He is such a happy baby now. He gained a lb in just a week so the doctor said that means that his valve is doing enough. He is now over 12 lbs. He is still spitting up but he doesn't seem to be in any pain anymore. He ate 50 ozs in one 24 hour period! The nurse was shocked. But I think we topped him off because he is not eating nearly that much now. The doctor is leaving him on double the drugs for now to try and get rid of the irritation from the acid. He said it will take a while to heal up all the damage. But after a couple weeks we will just give him medicine in the morning as a preventative measure. The funny part of the visit was when the nurse didn't put Kane's diaper back on and put the stethoscope on his chest. He peed in her face and all over. It was funny. You would think she would know better. Since Kane loves laying on the floor we got him a little monkey toy that hangs above him. He loves it. He laughs and talks to it. It plays music and lights up when he kicks it. Just have to keep Izzy away from it.
