Well, this a.m. Kim came to stay with Preston about 11:15 and Missie and I left to go to Greenville Memorial to see our ex-neighbor, and didn't think we would get to see Isabelle since she is in neo-natal. But Pam, the mom, was able to take one person at a time in with her and Missie and I got to see Isabelle. She is sooo tiny and so beautiful. After I went out and Missie went in, she opened her eyes and was looking around. I must say she had a snooty nurse. She didn't want Pam touching or talking to the baby. I spoke up and said we were told that the baby needed to hear her mother's voice. The nurse ignored that statement. I have never seen a NICU nurse act the way this nurse did, and I recommended she ask to not have her again. Anyhow, after we left the hospital, we stopped a couple of places and our last stop was at Ingles. While we were in there, my cell rang and it was Kim. She said Preston had fallen, and said he had a spot on his nose and his head but was no longer bleeding. But Preston was crying so hard and wanting me to come home, so I left everything in the basket and we got home as fast as we could. He was not crying when we got here and she had gotten him into his room and he was laying on his bed, so his nose would stop bleeding. He actually fell twice. He went outside to sit in the swing on the porch, and fell, got up and fell again and the last time he fell face first into the propane tank on the gas grill. It knocked his sunglasses off of his face, etc., and he then yelled for Kim. She went out and saw what had happened and called the head nurse from the agency and asked if she should move him, but she said Preston basically got up by himself. Susan, the head nurse, told her if he could move his extremities he was probably ok, and to call me. So that is the story of our day. I am just so thankful that he didn't break any bones. He has a gash on his nose, and it is bruised and a spot up by his eyebrow. His nose has wanted to bleed some this evening, too. Hopefully it won't bleed during the night.
Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
