Late night fix...

For those of you that are addicted to this blog as I am and have to check just before bed, here is what has been happening tonight. I arrived at around 7:00pm and Charlie was just starting to settle down for the evening after a very anxious day. Poor kid had been miserable for too long and probably was just worn out. He did, however settle down but stayed awake. Grandpa Barlow rocked him for some time and then it was time for the big tub. What fun!! He really doesn't mind it - even when his hair is washed. After the bath we massaged him with good smelling lotion and changed his dressing. He mostly liked the massage and lotion. Next we fluffed his bed and off to sleep he went. He is very peaceful now at 11:30pm and I am assuming that the NJ tube is the answer. Maybe it is the stomach that is causing the agitation. What a sweetheart he is. Sleep tight everyone... Grandma Kathi

Have a good night Kathi. I am one of those people, so thanks for the update. Is the NJ tube in?
I bet Char loved all the grandparent loving care tonight.

Through all of this, I hope your dear charlie has peace in his mind and in his soul. I can't think anything otherwise than he is being attended and kept busy by angels while he is going through such a great ordeal in his little life...and when the snapping moment comes they will send him back here to be with his family for many more years!!!

Thanks for the post, Kathi! I almost checked around 3am.....but didn't :) You are such an amazing Grandmother. It's obvious where Angel gets her kindness, patience, and strength.
Love and prayers for a better day.
