Honestly, I’m getting a little bored too, but apparently it’s a good sign that Norah is complaining of boredom. She’s getting tired of watching movies, so when she found out that there’s a roomful of toys down the hall, she conned Ben into walking her down with her IV pole. We took the wagon for a lap around the unit but this is a really busy place so we parked the wagon and got her back into bed.
Dr. Breuer and Dr. Rivkees both came by to check up on Norah, along with various other doctors, nurses, and residents. They all agree that she’s doing great. There’s no evidence of bleeding, and the greatest risk of that is in the first 12 hours so we’re nearing the end of that window. Norah’s calcium level was good, so she’ll have blood drawn again at midnight and 4 a.m. for two more checks. Hopefully those test results will be good too, and we can go home after breakfast. I’m running out of entertaining ideas!
