Matthew has outgrown his cute little wooden bassinet. Therefore we set up this portable play pen that moonlights as a bassinet. It has much more headroom inside and still enables Matthew to sleep in our room where we can tend to his overnight needs. This picture was taken right at bedtime. Matthew had a pretty tumultuous night without much sleep for any of us. He didn't have much of a urine output and seems to be getting a cold which made him very uncomfortable. He repeatedly coughed up some congestion which made his surgery-tender tummy hurt. I feel guilty for giving him my cold but there is just too much work involved in Matthew's care to leave it all up to Terri and stay clear of him.

I'm hoping this will pass quickly and they can all get back to their "normal" but hectic daily schedule. Michael was so careful to wear a mask while in the hospital with Matthew and we all realize that cold germs are everywhere. I know they are both exhausted, but were right by Matthew's bedside the entire night. I pray the fever will go away and stay away and he will feel much better so he can go home.

Love, Grandma Sue
