Day 10; Once, Twice, Two times addicted

Today was not a great day for us. Hayden is OK and cardiac funtion is good, but he went into fill blown withdrawal. I'll spare you the details, they are not pretty. It was unpleasant. They are still setting him straight. This is the second time he has gone through this. Both times, I was the one with him. I truly hope none of you ever has to watch someone go through withdrawal.
Pain management is working with him to get him " off the juice".
It is all part of the process of getting well.
Still in PICU and will remain there for a bit. H is taking oral meds., but is yet to eat. It was our project for today, but the vomitting got in the way.
Hoping for brighter days.
