When we arrived at the hospital, the dayshift doctors hadn't started their rounds. When I looked at Henry I felt immediately worried. His belly was showing the same swelling and bruise color that we had seen in Charlie on Friday. As soon as the doctor came in, Aly was showing them and telling them that we needed an X-ray. They agreed, of course and we watched the next few hours play out like a script we had already read. Henry did, indeed have the same issue and got the drain. I spoke to the surgeons, nurses, doctors, pharmacisits, cleaners, anyone about what happened with Charlie on Friday and asked them to make sure that there was no repeat.
Thankfully, there wasn't.
The other thing about Sunday was discussion about Henry's skin. He had shown some issues around his armpits and on Saturday evening, someone had tried an antifungal powder on him that had really dried him out. This got some discussion that later led to some more confusion because Charlie's skin is so bad, whenever anyone is asked about skin they assume we must mean Charlie.
