Camdyn's day was a good one. Starting out, we snuck in a bag of donut holes and some chocolate milk - for Camo to have a fun breakfast. He loved it! Of course, he wasn't too hungry by the time his "low potassium breakfast" was delivered from the hospital... so we discretely tossed some of it in the waste basket (to hopefully go unnoticed by the staff) to appear that he had eaten it :)
After a few times of "I tooted!" in the morning - we all began looking around for face masks... woe! Our boy is not joking around when he is ready to fill up a diaper. Wow! we won't go into too much detail, since I am sure you all have changed a diaper or 2 (hundred)... all I can say is - once it was disposed of, we had to take "that" trash bag outside of the room. Thank God for Febreeze :)
The doctor has lowered the dosage and the number of medicines Camdyn is needing each day. Our little man still has "doctoristis and nurseitis" (that is what the hospital staff says)... which is sad but true. Any meds he needs to be given, they walk in and hand to us - and we give it to him our self - after they leave the room. He has even learned how to take his own blood pressure :) How many 3yr. olds do you know can do that? :)
Camo enjoyed a wagon ride several times this afternoon and evening. He is really in great spirits.
He is trying to walk on his own... is a little wobbly, but that is to be expected. The rehab. specialist came by again today and saw him trying to walk in the play room - she was highly impressed.
The doctor said no dialysis today. So, that's great. His labs are all average... looking good!
We are hoping by the end of this week - the doctor will be able to x-ray the catheter and see that all has healed properly. If so, this would mean that he will be taken to the Operating Room to have both catheters removed. Please pray for his body to have fully healed by the end of this week. We are so anxious to have our baby home again.

Hey there Camo! It was so good to see you today - glad you liked your wagon ride and the ride in the "alligator" too. We love you and love to see you smile and laugh again. You are precious to us. We continue to pray for you to keep getting better. Love, Aunt Jamie, Uncle B, Christopher and Ben Ben :)
