Just a quick report on our first night at Emanuel…
Although Stephanie’s optimism is always greatly appreciated and admired, her posting of Tuesday about anticipating ‘falling to sleep early’ missed the mark by a mile. (Sorry Stef!). They had to change his bed from one he can get out of on his own, to a ‘tent-like’ bed that zips all the way around. This didn’t happen until quite late last night. Fortunately, Grammy & PaPa were still at their daily post and kept Sam entertained until the switch could happen.
This ‘tent bed’ is important because we no longer have 24/7 sitters as was provided at DCH, so this bed ensures that Sam cannot get out in the middle of the night. With room for only one of us to stay the night with him, Cameron or I need to be able to also get some sleep without worrying that Sam will wake and try to get out of bed on his own.
Anyway, it was late when Sam got to bed and then it took a long time to fall asleep. But, he slept soundly until the nurse woke us about
Sam is enjoying the cards and well-wishes, so now is a GREAT time to drop him a note or card. The address is:
