Kristena Tunstall > Our Daughter’s Hospital Story > July 9 (Day 9)

July 9 (Day 9)

On Wednesday, Mari is even more awake now.  She woke up about 3pm and did not go to sleep again for the rest of the day or night.  She is still on 24/7 dialysis.  She seems to be less swollen as it has gone down quite significantly.  Other than that there are no real changes and she is still unresponsive but awake.

Keith brings his and my stuff.  We decide to leave for a while and we go to Target.  I buy Mari’s “take me home from the hospital” outfit to hang up in her room to see all the time.  I buy her the “Happy Feet” DVD and 2 Wonder Pets DVDs.  “Happy Feet” is one of her very favorites and she simply loves the Wonder Pets.  We get some groceries and I pick up a couple of hand held games.  We go back to the Ronald McDonald house to drop off our stuff.  We eat dinner and then head back to the hospital.  Keith is now close by every night.  It is nice that he does not have to go back and forth and he is only about a 5 to 10 minute walk away.

Continue on to Day 10
