5th floor vs. 6th floor

So Ice Cube is still singing! Another great day for the Big Cheese. He made more improvements even over yesterday. He was smiling, locking eyes with us, tracking, etc. All great things. We finally moved out of the ICU and up to the 6th floor. I'm a 5th floor kinda guy, to be honest. I know more people down there and some of my peeps are in rooms down there. And the coffee is free! What's up with that, free coffee if you're in the ICU or have a heart kid and 25 cent coffee if you have a brain injury? Since when was there a class system for injured kids' parents? I'm going to the top with this one. :) Colby had his last IV taken out and he can now receive his seizure meds orally. He does have one MEAN case of diaper rash as the meds he's on give him some loosey goosey stuff, if you catch my drift. But otherwise he's doing great. He is cooing up a storm and babbling away. We're still in the waiting game for everything else, today at rounds they said Colby would now get a follow up MRI in about 2 weeks. The Neurology team also found an article that states Colby's type of brain injury can occur from a hypoxic event which means that they are leaning towards this as the diagnosis. But nothing official yet. We were also visited by the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation team today. We'll be meeting them and following up with them as Colby progresses throughout however long we are going down this road to recovery. So that's about it round here. I'm heading back to work on Thursday and well be hopefully coming home soon.

Blog to ya later!
