So Sleepy
Back at the hotel at 6;30 PM. After breathing on his own for 6 hours our little man is very tired. He is exhausted and a little disoriented. He said he needed to use the bathroom - which is great because it will be the first time since surgery. He signaled to me that he wanted to get out of bed and go to the toilet in his room. I told him he cannot get out of bed because he is all hooked up to so many things. He just motioned again to get him out of bed. He tapped the side rail and motioned to put it down. He started to move his legs as if he was getting out the side. We told him again he cannot and he seemed pretty upset with us. I asked him if he would go in the bedpan and he made it clear he was not going to. He finally laid back and rested. Maybe after a rest he will understand better. He also tried to write a message but was too tired and it was not legible. It is tough to see him so confused. After working so hard to breath for 6 hours, we were told, it is not unusual to be so exhausted and kind of disoriented. We hope he gets a good rest and can have enough energy to try again tomorrow.
