back in room




Dalton's back in the room but even after 4 ml of morphine he's still screaming in pain. Not in his head as you would suspect but from his tummy. I think morphine is his only choice in pain meds as he's allergic to the loritab and codeine. Please pray his stomach stops hurting. I think it's from the incision they make to place the bottom of the shunt?

We just called the nurse because he is still screaming. We get moments where he's fine but then he just starts screaming out again. Wow, didn't expect that. He's getting 3ml of morphine now to see if that helps.


Here he is sporting his new haircut. He usually comes back from surgeries with just a strip of hair missing but as long as his hair was getting, I thought that would look a little funny. Dr. Boop agreed to go ahead and shave it all. He looks so handsome with his new hair doo.
