It's very nice and MUCH larger than the room he had been sharing previously. And they moved the whole room as a group, so everyone's in the same positions, just in a new room (it's nice having familiar faces).Anyway, Kaleb couldn't really have a care in the world right now. They've continued to increase his milk intake so that he can eventually be weened off of the IV fluids, but now they will be administering 2 of his 8 feedings through his nose tube so that he doesn't get worn out and burn off too many calories just by eating.
We wanted to stay with him through the night (the hurricane is supposed to hit in the middle of the night), but there was a rumor that the hospital would be kicking everyone out at 7 PM. And since that was about the time that the winds were supposed to start really picking up, we decided to go ahead and leave about 5 to take shelter at our parents' houses out in Katy. Kaleb will be exceptionally safe. Woman's is built to withstand hurricane force winds, and the hospital has back-up generators in case they lose power.
