Today was another hard day. After removing the bandage on his neck partially, Pus was found under the rest of the bandage. It too needed to come off. More blood needed to be drawn and the new port place on his left hand would not support the removal of blood. The last drainage tube needed to be removed. It was decided that this would all be done at once. What fun. Marky was given sedation, but showed no signs of being sedated. The bandage was ripped off, the drainage tube pulled out, and Markey was protesting strongly. Still no port for the vampires. They called for ok for more sedative and by this time veins are collapsed. Everyone is exhausted. They still need blood. What a morning. The drugs really kicked in and Markey was saying how good he felt. He asked the nurse with a smile are you going to give me a shot? (This is the same child that was screaming bloody murder 10 min earlier) He got to go outside and look at the fountain in the front of the building and walk on grass on the side of the building. When he went inside he wanted to go in the cafeteria and sit down to eat. He said that he was well and ready to go home NOW! We know that he is getting better and after he does his first elimination, it is all down hill.
