We Have a Room

It's 11:00am and David finally has a room! Well, ok we've been in the room for half an hour, but we're fully checked in now. Whew!

We arrived at 6:15am (I was 15 minutes early! *gasp*) and got called back at 7:10am. David was sedated and a PICC line (special kind of IV) was placed. As expected, sedation left David very... sedated. (He's still sleeping now.) That sedate state turned out to be handy as David slept his way through an ultrasound (to check the state of his kidneys) and some x-rays (to look at how his bones have been affected by rickets) and checking into his room.

A quick talk with his nurse confirmed that she's not been told THE PLAN yet, which isn't a surprise. So we'll see where things go from here. I plan on making some phone calls and doing some reading while he's out.
