more travel....

we really don't look for trouble, but it somehow finds us. jen and ame are driving to lansing with joey today to meet nikki so that joey can rejoin his cousins and aunt and uncle in holly- but driving conditions are rough again. isaiah and i are holding down the fort in chicago, which is currently getting slammed with snow.

on the medical front- we tried feeding isaiah a small amount yesterday through his g-tube, and it worked for about 10 hours- then it stopped working, and we're back to square one. we're going to add a med and see if that helps, and try again today. we just put him back on the vent for a nap this morning, but before that, he was off for his first solid 24 hour period. so at least we're progressing on that front, and will continue to push to get the vent out of the room and the trach tube out. if the trach comes out, isaiah should be able to talk again, which will be great for him (and us).

the high fevers have subsided for the time being- and that's all i'll say about that- i've probably already said too much, as reporting good news has seemed to lead to setbacks this time around.
