Camo - July 28-30,2008

Hello to all! Camo is doing so much better :) we took him to school on Monday for a 1/2 day. He struggled with separation anxiety when we took him in the morning (we did too), and had a hard time laying down to nap - but when it was time to pick him up, he was super happy! He loved so much being reunited with his friends and teachers. I have to mention this - because it truly melted my heart... when we took him to school on Monday (his first day back ) we were talking to Ms.Lynn about how he may have a hard time with his nap - since he is still not on a regular schedule... She simply stated " I will hold him the entire time, if that is what he needs". How precious! Also, when we picked him up - she stated that he did really good with potty time, and even teared up when he first went " tee- tee"... thinking about how much everyone has prayed for him to start being able to "tee- tee" - which would mean that his kidneys are functioning properly again. We are so blessed to have so much love given to our little man - from his school teachers and little school friends. Since he spends almost more of his awake hours with them - than he does with us - it is so very comforting to know how much he is loved and cared for. We kept him home on the 2nd day - because he needed to try to catch up on his rest.
He is beginning to fall asleep a little easier at night.. working from 11p to 10pm then 9pm - trying to get back to the normal bedtime of 8:30pm that he was used to. He now has difficulty falling asleep - with his room completely dark (never had this problem before - prior to him being in the hospital)... we figured out that this is caused from being in the hospital for 4 weeks - with all lights constantly on - he adjusted to is somewhat, and is now having to try to change that mindset. We picked up a nightlight for him and he is doing pretty good now :)
His next follow up date is scheduled for lab's only - on Thurs., 7-31-08.
Thank you all again so very, very much for all your prayers!

I started to cry when I read this post. It is amazing how quickly he has recovered. Laura and Rod I cant imagine what the past couple of months have been like for you. Camyden we still pray that your life will be back to your normal routine soon and put all this in the past. Remember you have to teach Maddox how to drive a race car when he gets older! :-) We all love you so much!
