Cooper did great last night. He went to sleep around 8:30 and slept until 6:00! He did wake twice, but was able to put himself back to sleep. I changed his diaper at 6 which made him very mad. So, after about 20 minutes of trying to get him to go back to sleep, we cuddled in the chair and rocked until 8.

For breakfast he was able to eat a few bites of yogurt and banana. He ate a few bites of apple sauce for lunch, and almost an entire vanilla pudding for dinner. Cooper's doing better, but we still have a long ways to go with his eating.

They checked his sodium again today and it was 140. Right where it should be!

He did pretty good with all of his therapies today. He said "ball" while pointing to one several times. He has also has been pointing to items he wants now. He did a lot of standing during PT, but still wouldn't walk. She is going to fit him for a new left AFO tomorrow and also for one on his right foot. The chemo he is on can cause neuropathy and it looks like that is affecting his right leg/foot. We hope to get out on Sunday and get him a good pair of shoes that will fit over them.

Cooper is scheduled for an eye-exam at 7 in the morning to check his vision. We are unclear at this point if it is on his good eye, weak eye, or both eyes. Please pray for good news, another restful night, and a successful Chemo day tomorrow!

Mommy's Fav of the Day: Cooper pulled himself up on his own and stood for a long time, we were so proud!

 

Bath time is always fun!
