It has been good to be home. Slowly our home is getting cleaned and put back together after two different camps, children staying at two different households, and two weeks at the hospital. It is taking us a while and we are certainly taking it slow. But we are getting there.
As I was cleaning, I realized that our attention has not been focused on our home. Our children have resorted to making their own home repairs.
Apparently the toilet tube bar broke. But they fixed it!
Today Ben and Ainsley have been in creation mode. The VBS leaders sent home a box with all of the crafts in it for him to make. Ainsley showed him how to make the pillow and necklace this morning.
And then he had a visitor. Ryan came over to visit.
Ben got to show Ryan all of his Lego creations. Then he and Ryan tried to figure out how long it would take to build the star destroyer that he received. There was some debate on it. Ben thinks it would take a month, and Ryan encouraging him that he could build faster than that. Either way, Ben enjoyed the visit.
Now Ben is sleeping. He has already started running another fever today. So we called the cardiologist as instituted after the hospital discharge. They want Ben to go to the pediatrician tomorrow morning and have another set of eyes put on Ben. And then if he still runs a fever tonight, cardiology wants Ben to go back to the ER tomorrow. Really? To do what? That was the general cardiology desk at TCH who said they want Ben to go back to the ER. So hopefully Dr. Altman, his regular cardiologist, will call us back and have a different answer for us. Until then, we will see the pediatrician tomorrow morning and see if she can come up with an answer to why Ben has run a fever for 13 days.
