Celebrities Visit Children's Hospital




Over the past two days, there has been a lot of excitement at Children's Hospital. Yesterday some of the Red Sox pitching crew came to visit. Daddy took Camden and Maddie down to the entertainment area to see them. They even got up close with the World Series trophy! Today, some of the Celtics came in for a visit. Daddy took Camden over to another play room for a look, but there was too many photographers in the room to get too close, or for a photo op. Maybe next time!
Camden has been doing well now that we have started to give him breast milk through his J tube. He vomited a few times late last week, so it was stopped for a few days, but we started it on Sunday and he it tolerating it well so far. His direct bilirubin was up to 12 last week has even started to drop to 8 this week. His weight yesterday was 3.79 kg.
Maddie and I had a quiet day at the apartment today. We walked across the street to the library after her nap and checked out some new books. Daddy spent the afternoon with Camden. I really did not get Christmas shopping started like I thought I would yesterday, maybe later this week?!?!
Andy and I head back to Maine on Thursday. Andy will work over the weekend and I am hoping to have my OB appointment on Friday. Then Maddie and I will drive back to Boston on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning, depending on the weather. We are hoping that my mom and her husband Bob will join us for the weekend. Maddie misses them a lot, it has been over three weeks since her last visit.

Way to go Camden and Maddie! Grampy is jealous too!! Come on, let's all give a big Bili-Boo. We want those counts down to 1 pretty soon. Keep the weight climbing though. We are all cheering for our little boy's counts!!! This Nana doesn't like to count the weeks . . . and Madison, how about a telephone call? Hugs and Kisses. Nana and Grampy

Hey kiddos - sorry we've been out of the loop. Ang talked to Andy last night & that was the first we'd heard of Camden. Congratulations!!! He's a cute little devil. Glad to hear Maddie is doing well with the "big sister" status. Let us know if you need anything. I'll keep you guys in my prayers.
