Riley had a good day today. He ate well and was in generally good spirits. He talked to his Grammy on the phone, went to the playroom, played with Play-Do and his cars. We watched the Giants game on TV and Riley chimed in with a few "Beat LA!" chants. At one point he talked about the things he'd like to do when he gets home - eat lunch with the family, play baseball with Dad and play with cars. It's the first time we've heard him talk about leaving the hospital. It's nice that he realizes we won't be here forever.
His drains are still putting out fluid - about 150cc total during the day.

Fantastic news, so glad to hear he is looking forward to good things. I hope that will apply to you parents too at some stage in the near future. You all deserve a break. I hope too that Suzanne you're looking after yourself, we're all concerned that you don't neglect your health. Unsolicited lecture I know, I'm sorry! Anyhow, keep up the good work and give Riley a big kiss from us. We're routing for a quick road to recovery from here.
All our love

Still praying and thinking of you all.
