Honestly don’t know why I’m up, I’m exhausted but for some reason I can’t sleep…. It’s coming up on Day 6 for Hudson being at home. He’s doing pretty good, he’s gaining weight and Gabby and I have diligently been feeding him every 3 hours. First we started with the pump and that was taking […] It has been 4 days since Hudson came home and it’s so great having him home, but at the same time it’s soooo busy. I am exhausted beyond belief. I am not even sure how I found the energy to type this post but felt like I needed to document how I am feeling. Overwhelmed […] It’s Friday May 21st and we are coming home, soon, the time was suppose to be at 11:00a.m but it’s now 2:30 and we are still here, just waiting for discharge papers and prescription drugs UGHH!! but we should be making it home sometime today. ………. Hudson’s Journal Entry Hudson Jeremiah Torrens is finally coming […] Today is one week exactly since we left Edmonton and I am sitting here at BC Children’s Hospital watching my little angel sleep, he is so cute I just want to lie beside him and cuddle all day. He looks so peaceful and super adorable. Sometimes he opens half of one eye to see if […] This song was sent to me soon after we found out about Hudson’s heart condition which was at around 20weeks of being pregnant. A friend of ours emailed it to Chris and I and told us that this song was written for two parents that had a baby with Hypoplastic Left Heart. When I first […] Saturday night we all packed up the room and cleaned up a bit then took the kids to Stars On Ice. Ronald McDonald House had free tickets so we decided to tall take a night out. On Sunday morning after packing up the kids to go with their grandma and “tia” (aunt) on Sunday at […] Well today was probably the most eventful of all so far. Gabby got her best Mother’s Day gift ever… She gets to fly back to Vancouver and be around ‘home’ with Hudson. Something she really wanted and it happened 🙂 I guess I cut it close on the poll answers! We weren’t expecting to go […] Canada celebrates National Nursing Week May 10-16, 2010 while our American friends celebrate National Nurses Week May 06-12, 2010. Before we came to Edmonton, AB we mainly heard about the great surgeons here… But we have to say that there is a lot more that goes on than just the surgery! The nurses here are […] Gabby is at the hospital this morning with Adriana and the kids. Hayley needed to go to her scheduled war wound check up which is down the hall from NICU. It sounds like Hudson had a good night and his oxygen saturation has been in the 80%-90% for a while now! Amazing! And it sounds […] Guess when Hudson will get to go back to Vancouver! Keep in mind a few things have to happen: His sats need to increase He needs to be able to feed as they ween him off proteins/lipids. He needs to ween off drugs like Midazolam & Esmolol Needs the clean bill of health (the OK) […] A quick update. This morning during rounds, they said Hudson is going to stop getting Morphine pumped into him. Yay! Also, they pulled the pacer wires out and he seems to be doing well. He did have a couple episodes of de-sat’ing last night (his oxygen saturation in his blood is less than optimal… In […] The day has finally come, almost 2 weeks after his surgery and we are able to finally hold a baby instead of a load of tubes. It was a very rough day for Hudson since he got his wire test completed which was a brutal test that can’t feel good. They were basically trying to […] The day starts off as usual with the exception that Chris is due to be back at work for 4hrs in the morning. We have managed to arrange something with his Mom and my sister and helping with the two kids while I go see Hudson first thing in the morning. Chris drops me off […] I started this last Sunday but haven’t finished it until today…. So it’s the end of the week and a lot of things happened and still a lot more things to happen. Hayley was sick for a bit, then Hayden got sick, then I got sick. Hayden is still feeling ill in his stomach after […] |
