Tanner has been kind of whiney today. He just hasn't seemed like he felt too well. We haven't been giving him much morphine lately, so we gave him some this morning, and it didn't even make a difference. Tonight we suggested they try some ativan for nausea...and what do you know? He is feeling so great right now. He's talking and playing and in a great mood. Turns out he needed ativan, not morphine!!

They were thinking about sending us up to ICS (the immune-compromised unit) today. But, Tanner's prograf level was way too high this morning. The prograf is what keeps him from rejecting his new liver. A couple days ago it was dangerously low, now his levels have swung to the other side of normal. So, they need to keep Tanner in ICU so they can watch him closely until they get those levels under control.

We went for another walk today, which Tanner enjoys.
He's resting now, I just hope he sleeps tonight, because he hasn't been sleeping much. Maybe it will all catch up with him at once!

Anyway, sorry this is short...but we're hanging in there!
