Instead of watching for meteorites and northern lights tonight, I’ll be listening to the poor screaming boy next door and gazing at florescent lights for the evening… Hudson has to stay another night. I knew he’d be here another night when I got to the hospital at around 6pm tonight and was watching his monitor and noticed a “frequent SVPBs”, and “Irregular Heartrate” showing up on his monitor periodically. As I type, another SVPB shows up while he rests. An SVPB apparently is a supraventricular premature beat; a ‘beat’ that originated at the top of the ventricle too soon. It doesn’t seem to bother him too much but they need to observe him. My poor little guy, i can’t stand seeing him go through these little things and I am really feeling powerless to do anything about it.
That’s it for now… Need to try and find something to eat, wasn’t really planning on being here another night but…..
