The kids got up this morning at 6am. Little poops. My mom was up too so I didn't want to saddle her with the urchins and I crawled off the couch. I need to clarify, it was a two cushion small loveseat. I wasn't paying attention when I put Monkey Boy to bed last night and gave him the big couch. So when peanut woke up at 2am (I had been sleeping for all of an hour) she and I had to smoosh on the small one. Not fun according to my back and neck.
My aunt from Antigo came down to watch Monkey Boy so Kirk and I could take Peanut to see Papa. He is breathing so much better today. The tap came back with a very high white cell count which means an infection. Duh. He was getting another MRI type scan done at noon so the nurse was asking him about neck injuries (they are scanning his neck). One of the questions was "Do you have any artificial limbs?" My dad laughed and said no but my husband said "He has an artificial toe". My dad thought he said something smart assy but when the husband told him what was said, dad almost fell off the bed laughing. The nurse pointed to a question and asked for a yes or no. He laughed and said no but he would take one for real cheap. I looked at the nurse and said, "Are you asking if he has a penile implant?" She said she didn't want to embaress him in front of his daughter to which my dad, husband and I all started laughing so much. Yeah that's my family.
At any rate, he's doing ok for now. He's still on oxygen and pain meds. He's so doped up sometimes. He loved seeing Peanut and we're still contemplating taking Monkey Boy up there. If he makes some miraculous recovery in the next 24 hours, he can go home Monday but that ain't happening and he knows it. He had an incident with his right eye today. He blinked and when he opened his eye (he was standing by the window for his once a day view) he couldn't see anything. Then there was a burst of blue, then white, no shapes. Very odd. They are thinking maybe a blocked artery in his neck. Hopefully before we leave tomorrow night, we'll know more. If, God forbid, he takes a turn for the worse, the husband and Monkey Boy will go home tomorrow and Peanut and I will stay.
Ok it's nap time around here. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.
