Banished Into Isolation



Jaden caught a cold, so we were put into an isolation room. That means that any nurse or doctor that comes in has to first put on a robe, gloves, and a mask before they can work with him, then they have to throw them all away when they leave the room. It's quite the hassle for a cold. He doesn't seem to feel too badly from the cold, so it's not affecting him too much. It definitely isn't affecting his weight gain - 4 pounds 5 ounces!
Hopefully we'll be out of isolation soon, and then maybe we'll get a spot next to a viewing window. Because he's sick, he's back on high-flow at 2 liters per minute but handling it really well. He is way more alert lately - he loves looking around and staring at everything! It is so fun! They say he should get a mobile soon to focus on! We just love him!
