Still Posting from the Hospital


Thank you so much for all your kind words, thoughts, and prayers for us over the last few days. Rainer is responding very well to his antibiotics and will probably be released to go home tomorrow.  We're waiting for more labwork to come back before he can go.  It's very heartening to see this little guy happy and playing and not sick-acting.  We've gotten up to the patio the last 2 evenings and that is a welcome break from the hospital room each time.
The view of Santa Barbara from the rooftop patio.  
Happy in the air and sun.

Hospital amusements.
No real news here.  No news is good news, that's for sure!  We've been reading a lot and finding You Tube videos for Rainer, especially this one (Ken just bought him the book Snuggle Puppy and we had to "You Tube" it to find the melody--it's cute!)  Also Little Bear and he adores Quick Quack Quany.  Oh, and look at this one too--it has pictures from Children of the Forest.  Happy Sunday.

Poor Rainer. He's been through it a bit this week hasn't he. Hope he's feeling better soon. Wasn't that a lovely crocheted blankie he got from project linus.
Love the view from the patio, I'm sure you all really enjoy getting out there into the fresh air. Bx
