Quick Update from Mom

Camden's weight today is 3.56 Kg (7lbs, 13oz). His color is a pale yellow, better than the last few days. Big sister Maddie , Grammie, and Mommy had lunch with our good friends Mark and Marjorie and then walked in the Arnold Arboretum here in Jamaica Plain. Maddie napped while we were walking, but she woke up to get in the car to go see Camden. He slept most of the time we were there, but we did go for a couple of walks in the hall with Maddie and Grammie. I think he was dreaming of more ways to pull out his NG tube! We are waiting for his HIDA scan of his liver on Monday. He is also on 5 days of Phenobarbital before the scan to help the liver excrete bile better.
We miss daddy who is at home working for the weekend. Luckily, he will be here on Monday night. Get some sleep Daddy!!

Hi Tonya and Andy,
We heard that you were in town and I'm glad to hear that you have started to settle in. It is also good to hear that Camden is doing well and gaining weight. Reading your post reminds me so much of our time at Children's last year. We don't live that far away from you in JP and would love to get together some time and possibly meet your little man. If we can do anything to make your stay here a bit easier please let me know. If you ever need anything, help, home cooked food or just to talk to some one that has been through this please, please just let me know.
