Little steps!

HI everyone
Eli here...thought i would touch base just to let you know the latest goss...i have just had my naso-gastric tube out and BOY does it feel great! Mum and dad reckon i look weird, kinda like having a moustache shaved off!
Im still not sleeping great at all...Dr Karin came in to today and said that i was doing all the right things. I have started taking most of my medicine by my mouth (which is why i can take out the tube)...and im still eating really really well.
Mum and dad look very tired, as im probably on averaging 8-10 hours of very broken sleep a day...its hard cause i cant tell them whats wrong, but im sure they will work it out soon. I havent put together more than 2 hours sleep straight day or night for the past 6 nights, so we are all feeling very tired. Little steps forward!
My neutrophills are doing a great job and im at 430...only 70 to go and i will hit the awesome 500 mark which means 3 straight days of those and i will be able to venture into the bat cave...yahoo!
we have been locked up now for 29 days...amazing...i think mum was a bit over it yesterday, but she is feeling a little better and was back to her chirpy self!

tyfgbuinuybt jhg c - i was helping mum type!!
anyways, its nearly feeding time at the zoo, so i will catch you all later...we will try and get some piccies up soon!
love to all
