Moody Man

As I expected, Brody is still very irritable. Enough so that I think the docs will not push the idea of releasing him tomorrow. It would be great to get home but the only thing worse than being here for weeks at a time is going home very briefly and having to make an emergency trip back. It feels like failure when that happens. Like maybe we let him down in some way. But anyway--expect us to be here at least through the weekend and lets keep our fingers crossed that we'll be home for Thanksgiving. After all, it looks like pain management is the only thing holding us back. He has now been successfully weaned down to his normal ventilator settings. YEAH!
