So now they're changing out his feeding tube and putting a new one in his nose, because they said that when he wakes up, they don't want it to fall out.

Also, it turns out that his urine output is just fine, but the catheter tube was messing up, so they fixed that.

And finally, they're going to try to put in a peripheral IV and take the one out of his belly button so that they can get a bigger line in :) they said it shouldn't be ANYWHERE near as difficult as it was last time because he was pretty dehydrated (not to mention squirmy) when they tried last time.

But, since they don't need us here until 2, we're going to scoot and get a shower and something to eat before the MRI :) No really, this time we're actually going ;)

I'm glad it was just the catheter and he's peeing like a champ. Poor little guy. I hope the IV and MRI go smoothly.
