The BIG MOVE!!!!

 The projection was for us to come to Tampa General Hospital at about two weeks from his surgery date which was June 7th.  On Monday June 13th the Neuro team came by for their rounds like normal...the first time For Dr. Tuite (the Doctor who performed his surgery),  he was surprised on how far Cameron had come with his healing after his surgery.  He said that they where ready to release Cameron to Tampa General ...I was thinking that this was going to take a couple of days to coordinate...With making sure there was a bed at TGH,  labs that they would have to run, another MRI before leaving ...blah blah blah..
we where told at around 10 that TGH had a bed open and that the transfer was going to happen on the same day later in the afternoon.
All the test that needed to be run got done....

I don't remember if I have mentioned this earlier in our blog how we have adopted the All Childrens ambulance transport team into our family....Cameron originally was transported to the hospital closest to our house in Tarpon Springs.  Well they needed to get Cameron to All Childrens quickly...When the transport team came into to Helen Ellis to get our baby, they where like Angels walking in I had this huge weight lifted off my shoulders....I just can't express the relief...They just made us feel so at ease with the way they cared for our baby and how they explained everything ...in the transport they had me sit in the front and all the advice in what things we should do when we get there to better organize our selves with our stay....
No-one could have predicted that Cameron was going to have emergency brain surgery 3 to 4 hours after they dropped us off... this team came by to check on us and found out his status...they cried with us and supported us through all the things we went through.  This team came by every chance they could to check on Cameron and us....they sat with our family and friends in the waiting rooms ...words just can not express all that they mean to us...We have decided that they have become apart of our family...we will be quizing them later on the names of the 17 kids....

It was wonderful that we where able to get to TGH in less then a week after his surgery....It was just over the top that Cameron got Transported to TGH with the same crew that got him to All Childrens Hospital...the joke was the Cameron was a lot more mouthy than the last trip....

Tampa General is boot camp for Cameron he will no less then three hours of therapy a day Monday thru Friday. I'm not sure how things will go on Saturday and Sunday...I believe he will have therapy maybe not the full three hours aday.

Cameron continues to surprise us with a new tricks daily.  When the transport team came to get Cameron on Monday he moved himself from the hospital bed to the stretcher and then from the stretcher back to the hospital bed when we got to TGH.  When he does these this it is not gracefull...but he did it on his own slowly....
On Tuesday June 15th, at Tampa General a Doctor came in to look at Camerons Pressure wounds he got from when he was in coma....Cameron rolled to his rght side and put his legs over the side of the bed and pushed himself up.   Cameron had been practicing this in his therapy sessions but never has done it on his own with out step by step directions on what to do and assistance from others....This was amazing...I had to explain to the doctor here at TGH that this was new for Cameron that he had not done this on his own ever....

Thank you again for all the thoughts and prayers!!!!
