Grier had a pretty stable night-- He did get a fever during the night but they said that was to be expected after a surgery like this- He also received blood and remained heavily sedated -- They are weaning him off the ventilator as I type-- so by this morning he will wake up and be mad as I am told-- they want that to happen and then they will pull the tube out-- They will use a oxygen mask or a cannular? Should be interesting- Susan knows how he loves that! They asked how he did with either and I laughed and said we did blow bys-- because he freaked out so much! Anne -- Do you remember holding that tube all night?
We have not heard any results of biopsies -- or marrow results-
I can only get to caringbridge from NY-presbyterian so I can not wait to go to the Ronald to read the blog- I also have my phone off-- no phones in PICU!
still looking up-

Amy, I just wanted you to know that my family and I have been praying for you and your family over these past months and especially these last few days. We are glad that he was finally able to have the surgery and pray for his continued recovery. You guys will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers,
Sincerely, Kathy Cates Cisne
Be of courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord. Psalm 31:24
Go Grier Go!
We love you,

Apparently I'm not as tech savvy as I thought! I'm messing up my post, but I meant to say that I would love to come see y'all when/if you feel ready for a visitor. I'm not too far away in Brooklyn. 917-748-1245.
Amy - What a blessing that the surgery was shorter than expected and that Grier had a restful night!! We continue to pray for Grier's speedy recovery, for you and for Jeff that you all can get some rest, and for Hayes, Grace and your mom in their travels and return to Charlotte.
You continue to amaze me with your strength and positive attitude. What a true inspiration for all of us moms!
We love you all and can't wait to get you all home again!
