I talked to Caden’s nurse at about 5:30 this morning and Caden had a good night.  There were a few spells of Caden trying to wake up, but nothing too exciting.  “Nothing too exciting” is what you want in the first 24 hours after a day like yesterday.  The nurse full expects Caden to be removed from the respirator this morning and be allowed to wake up.  Sherry and I came home last night to get some good rest per the doctor’s recommendations and our bodies fatigue.  We both slept pretty good knowing the next couple of days will be spent in the hospital at Caden’s side once he is conscious.

Sherry and I are headed out to be at the hospital when shift change ends in the PCICU.  We will report more later today as Caden progresses.

Thank you for your love and support for our family!
