Yes, Dev’s in the hospital. We’ve been told that odds are that this is a minor thing, a treatable infection. The problem is that they don’t know what caused the infection, so they haven’t determined the antibiotic that they can use to target it. As long as the swelling remains, he remains. And the current antibiotic isn’t working any magic yet.
I’ve received several emails from friends and family that I’m a bit too tired to answer tonight. I just wanted to use this space as an update. Please know that I received the emails and that I appreciate them. But 11 hours straight in a teeny-tiny hospital room with an 18-month-old who is getting increasingly bored with his new surroundings is a bit tiring.
Just send out some good thoughts that tomorrow will be his release date. We’re just so eager to have his smiling face back home.
Get well soon, Devin!
awwww poor Devin…but dang he’s in the hospital and he’s still smiling??? Such a sweet boy.
what a tense and tiring and worrisome time it must have been for you (and yours), lori! is he home yet? i’m thinking of you-all-three…
Thanks for the kind thoughts, ladies!
He’s back home now…came home last night and was thrilled to be toddling around the house again. He actually seemed amazed to get in his carseat at the hospital for the ride home. He’s in such good spirits. We have such a very strong and brave little boy.
Thinking very good thoughts. What a great smile.
Sorry you all had to go through this. Glad your home. Will keep thinking good thoughts. No need to answer.

Yea! So glad to hear that he is home safe. It looked like he was at DeVos (the telltale tiger gown). They know their stuff there. I hope some answers come up. That poor guy has had so much trouble in his short lifetime! The fact that he’s smiling is reassuring, that it isn’t hurting him in spirit. Sending love to you all!
He’s so cute for anything bad to happen! I’m happy to hear that he’s home. He’ll never remember and you’ll never forget. : )
