So my favorite picture is the bottom right one... I call this Ezra's hospital clubbing look. The little tank was made out of mesh to keep him off his tubing. He ran around in a diaper and clubbing tank with his bunny slippers pretty much the entire time we were in the hospital... it just makes me laugh.
We did have a little drama Tuesday night. The little cap on the line for needles to insert into the line popped off... notice on the picture above that this is before the clamp... so blood started pouring out. Of course we weren't even at the hotel we were in Old Navy. Ian figured the best solution was to put the cap back on even though it wasn't sterile because otherwise he would be bleeding like crazy. I thought it was a pretty good solution... I am sure someone else would have done something else but it sure worked for us. We had to bring him to the ER because we knew there was a chance of infection. They drew blood to try to see if they could grow anything. They took out that line and put a new line in and flushed the blood out of his port. What craziness!!
After that on Wednesday morning we were totally off our game. We forgot to bring factor to his appointment... luckily the hospital pharmacy had some in stock. Ezra was so good during that infusion and when they pulled the line. He was happy to be able to bathe... and man I was happy he could because he stunk so bad!! Little sponge baths just don't to the trick on a messy toddler.
We are so happy to be home. Ezra was so happy to see Eve and Eve was so happy to see Ezra. It was just too sweet!

What a cute and happy little guy! It is great to see he enjoyed most of the time at the hospital and had all the nurses wrapped around his little finger.
