*there's a hospital trip

Quick update on Will: Sunday morning Chris suspected Will had a Tet spell. The things we are to look for are: a morning time crying session, usually related to going to the bathroom, his color changing to blue, and it lasting longer than his more common shorter spells. Chris wasn't exactly sure his color was blue, but it wasn't his usual color either. Even though we see that sometimes it doesn't usually last more than a minute or two. We called the cardiology office and they asked that we bring him in to the hospital to be observed overnight. So here we are, back in the hospital!

Despite not wanting to be at the hospital in theory, we are both glad that we came. It is a relief to have so many people watching to make sure he's okay. I think the cardiologists will talk to the surgeons and discuss whether or not to send him home, go ahead and do the heart repair, or do a partial repair with the full repair happening a little later.

Otherwise, Will has gotten so big! He is 9 lbs now. He really did gain weight well for the week that he was home.

We will obviously keep you updated as we know more.
