Puking, pooping and yuck!

Our day started out at 5am (obscenely early) with the sound of John puking. We got him all cleaned up and back into bed and again at 9am (not obscenely early but still earlyish) we went through the same thing again. Poor little guy. Dad was gone to be with a parishioner having a procedure at the hospital and it was just me and John hanging out hoping that he would feel better. So through the day we mostly had pooping, puking and cleaning up and then John would be ready to go back to sleep. Needless to say he ate nothing but was still glad and had smiles for dad when he came home. We took him to the lab to find out how bad his numbers were and they aren't good, but at least we are still home. So for the night we are watching him and making sure that he doesn't look any worse. His CO2 was down to 14 and so we are making some med adjustments and hanging on until we hear different from his GI team tomorrow or his numbers come up when we do labs again on Friday. So I guess the title of this update could have been 'holding our breath' but that will probably be tomorrow's.
