October 26th, 2006. Beau is actually doing really great at rehab. His first day there he pulled out his NJ tube and I had to give the doctor permission to put in an NG tube. These are tubes that go through his nose and into his stomach to "top up" his feeds incase he doesn't take it all by bottle. Then he ripped that one off yesterday! Just yanked it right off his face. It sounded like velcro.

I really can't say enough for the rehab center and its staff. They are so kind and knowledgeable without being know-it-alls. They asked my opinion and about my past knowledge with Beau and they actually listened and implimented what I've said! It's great to feel like you're being validated, like you know something too. I'm not saying that the NICU didn't do that... but this is different. I really like that Beau gets his own room and his own undivided attention from his nurse and all the therapists that see him in the day.

Right now Neill and I are sick. We can't believe it. Neill's had a headache and sniffles for a few days, but last night I woke up with a raging soar throat and nose and I couldn't breath. The odd thing is, the day before I woke up early in the morning and just threw up. No reason to it. And no, it's not the pregnancy. Oh yes, I should add that we are currently expecting our second child. We're 11 weeks along and since December of 05 I've been not pregnant for 9 weeks. Yes it's exciting, no it's not funny, yes we're still in shock! Okay so most times it is really funny.
