He sleeps.

Just a quick update that Watts just fell asleep. They have increased his morphine and methadone (and added another drug, Decadron) and his little body is finally relaxed. He starts his new chemo drug soon but we're hopeful that there wont be any major side affects.

So, deep breath. We're all going to try and nap now.

So very, very thankful this morning for:

A strong husband who loves his boy like crazy. I have to "fight" him to be the one next to Watts during procedures... Michael is always, always by his side.

Kind nurses.

Dr Sam (one of our awesome PICU doctors), who swooped in from the PICU and breathed words of life into weary, discouraged parents. He hadn't seen Watts in a week and his exact words were: "He looks so good that it makes me want to cry!" He assured us that we didn't need to go back to the ICU and that the drug withdrawal was just an (incredibly unfortunate) hiccup on the journey to get our boy better.

Dr McLean, who was apologetic and assured us they would do whatever it took to get our boy feeling better again.

    Nothing is impossible for You
    You hold my world (Watts) in your hands
