We did indeed make it home JUST in time to make supper for Owen's birthday. Owen was ready to remind me that his birthday wasn't nearly as important as being home on Monday to take him to get his learner's permit! As mom, being here for both was better. 😀 Owen passed his written test yesterday, and has already logged 30 minutes of driving. Reuben is doing better day by day, but we're still having a hard time getting the entire recommended diet into him each day. We can hit about 75%, but when we go past that, he vomits.😟 As his surgeon said many times, Reuben has a VERY small stomach - likely the result of not eating very much for quite a while. Today was our best day yet, and his energy continues to increase. He does still feel quite uncomfortable at the surgical site, as evidenced by the way he moves, but he is moving around, which is good!
Best of all, he hasn't had any seizures that we are aware of since mid-day Saturday!
