Guess what?! Guess What?!!!  They took me out of PICU and rolled me down to the 6th floor (Room 623).  It was so much fun going for a ride through the hospital!  "The Magster" is rollin' now!  Next move will be out of the hospital!  They've put me in an isolation room so I won't have any roommates and to make sure I don't catch anything while I'm here.  Mommy bought me an Elmo balloon for my new room and I REALLY love Elmo. 

The only bad thing right now is I'm still itching from my pain medicine.  They took me off the IV drip and are giving me most of my medicine through my feeding tube.  They are also giving me more "food" through my tube because they want to force my body to push the bile that's left in it out.  So now I only have a drainage tube at my incision site (to make sure there's no bleeding), an IV in my foot and one in my arm (for my anitbiotics).  It makes me uncomfortable and hard for Mommy to hold me, but I just know it won't be long before they take all of them out too.  I heard the doctors say they are tickled to death with my "numbers".  (Hmmm.  Could that be my girlish figure of 12-12-12?)  

So now I'm just sleeping and watching Elmo on his DVDs.  "Life is good again!", as Mommy put it.  Tomorrow, my good friend Tamara Dietrich from the Daily Press is coming to see me and take pictures.  I really like her - she is soooo nice and has helped Mommy & Daddy with many things.

There's one more thing that's important.  One of the other children in PICU was a little 15 month old boy had suffered a brain injury.  When we were leaving, we found out that they were taking him off of his life support and his family was having to say good-bye to him.  It was really, really hard for them.  I don't know his name, but God does.  Would you all please be praying for his family?  I know how much prayer helps - because of how yours have helped me - and I think they could really use them.  Thanks for being so loving and giving - to everyone.

Love,

The Magster
