Jan 12th

Good morning from Vandy...
Logan had a more restful night but is still in quite a lot pain. We are waiting for him to start eating and moving about...this could translate into us maybe being able to get out of here earlier than expected. It is actually safer for him to be out of a germy hospital than in one , however we also don't want to leave here too soon with the distance between the hospital and our home.
The endocrine team feels that they are getting a handle on his diabetes insipidus and hope that he will start recognizing the signs that he needs to use his medicine. It's quite interesting, it is a nasal spray that he will use that will regulate his fluid levels...hmmm
His shiner is starting to subside, it's a beautiful shade of red at the moment! He just had his catheter removed and although he says it was the most painful thing he has every experienced, he is feeling like a new man!
That's about it for now...Logan just got cleaned up, got his morphine and is headed off to la-la land...will update again tomorrow!

Yo Logan,

We can't wait to see you wearing your grill next weekend while we're in town! Keep climbing that hill called recovery and soon enough you will be coasting down the other side. And be nice to your mom - hasn't she been through enough already! : )
Hugs - Jim, Crissy, Ella & Laney
