Out of Intensive Care!!



Hiya, Patrick has had another good day today, still no fits!
He has been wide awake and enjoying lots of cuddles all day. He was moved out of Intensive Care at around 2:30pm. He is now back on high dependancy, which is 2 nurses to 4 beds so he is still in very safe hands, recieving lots of special attention. He still has his feeding tube, I did try and give him a bottle this afternoon but he didn't really take to it, wasn't sucking at all. He has been reffered to a speech and language therapist who will assess whether he is able to swallow properly and hopefully she'll be able to help get him back on the bottle. He will have another EEG tomorrow so fingers crossed that comes back with a slightly better result than before. He's still very rattly and sounds a bit like Darth Vader at the moment but he is coughing well and clearing his chest so hopefully that will clear up soon.

Anyway, it will be a long day tomorrow but hopefully another good one. We are taking Isaac in to see his little brother so he's really excited as he's missed him loads.

Thanks again for all your support and good wishes.
