Moving day

The doc says Gabe should be moved out of the ICU today. Hopefully he gets a private room. I imagine he will. We had some other good things happen today and it's only 10:30 in the morning! One of Gabe's IVs - the arterial line - has been removed and his NG tube (the one in his nose) has been clamped. As long as his stomach can handle some water, it will be removed today. He had a couple sips so far. It's a start. Gabe will feel so much better with that thing gone. The nurses changed his bedding and his clothes a little while ago and I washed him up a bit. He's mad and sad but handling everything very well. He's such a tough kid. Brian will be here after work to visit. He's bringing me some groceries too. Lasagna. He's bringing me lasagna! All is well.
