Mac moved out of PICU this evening! It is one step closer to coming home. We are hoping he will be able to come home for a little while to heal completely from surgery before starting his treatments. Although he is not eating as much as I would like he is making progress. Everyday we are able to see more glimpses of our Mac. He went to the playroom today and painted and even played his Beyblades for a few minutes. Tonight is dad's overnight and I just got a message saying Mac has been laughing all night. We had the Star Wars Lego Advent calendar this year and Mac LOVED it. His favorite part was being able to "poke" the door to discover what guy or ship he would build. He told dad today that he felt like the Advent calender...."poke, poke, poke". He may be getting tired of all the doctors and nurses "poking" him!
Many of you know Mac's favorite breakfast is Boston Creme Donuts with cream cheese on top. In an effort to get him to eat I got him 2 donuts this morning (no cream cheese, we are taking things slow). He ate all but 2 bites!
Can't wait to see him tomorrow and get a "Mac" hug!
