Matthew is in a lot of pain but is doing well. His headaches wake him up every few hours and it takes a while to get him calmed down. They've done very little weaning of his narcotics at this point.
He is stable enough that they were able to move him into the corner suite where we always seem to end up. It's a little bigger and has one more window than the regular rooms on the floor. We like to think we end up in there because we're such cool people but there's probably a little more to it. He is now sharing his nurse with one other patient instead of getting the one on one care he needed when he was less stable.
He just got to drink about 15 ML's of sugar water. He sucked it down like he hasn't eaten for a week. We're still hoping he's going to get switched to the low flow cannula so he can take a full bottle.
These are all little steps he needs to take to get closer to going home.

Glad to hear that everything is going so well for all of you. He is such a litle cutie and a big fighter. Take care and keep us informed.
