On our third day in Emanuel we pretty much just hung out and did our best to relax. It wasn't easy at times as we watched Keely turning more and more yellow and the thought of photo-therapy lingered in the back of my mind. I think her jaundice levels were checked about 4 times throughout the day (no heal-sticks, they have a new and improved light-saber way of checking them these days) and each time we were told she was still alright, even though the level was high.
Marilyn and Jack visited and got to meet and cuddle Keely for the first time. It was nice seeing them. Jake went to dinner that night with his friend Brian, but he chose not to visit the room as he had been sick the week before and he was kind (and smart!) enough to not share his germs. Shawna also came to visit and hang out. Later that evening she and Jake hit the road, Voodoo Doughnuts bound. I had pretty much depleted the supply from the night before (and I'm not sorry about it!) and Shawna was jonesin' for something sweet (guess she wasn't getting enough of that from Keely Q!).
Great grand-baby #5
Gotta get my love and cuddle time in, even if it means I have to take the picture myself!
Daytime view from our room. Because the OB recovery wing was shut down due to construction on the new ICU, we got the penthouse suite at the new (not even opened!) children's hospital.
