Laura reports that they moved to a room at 2 am. Jon is in 5C68. [ Jon’s been moved to 5A11 ]
Jon got an Advil around 6 pm, but nothing after. As he tried to sleep, the emergency pages over the loudspeaker–which begin with a loud ping, not unlike the airplane chime that started all this–were driving him bananas. Laura reports that by midnight he gave up on frustration and got really wide awake and giggly. Jon was given Tylenol with coedine at 2, and finally slept. Around 3 am, a page echoed around the upper hallways, and you could hear babies howling and heart machines pinging from all the young ‘uns it awoke, but Jon was way, way out! Poor guy is probably getting the first decent sleep in a week.
Laura only joined the caffeinated masses a few months ago, but it was a good thing she had that cappucino at 10 pm, because she was asked to provide a detailed history of what happened at the nurses station at 2:30 am.
holy cow! fractured femur. will read up the re rest of trip soon. hang in guys. all this hanging around the hospital at all hours can’t be any worse than gettting pummelled on the ottawa river…peter should know:-)

Ouch! Hope surgery goes well, and we’ll come visit soon!
That sucks big time. Hope this all gets resolved with as little pain as possible.
In which hospital’s 5C68 would one find Jon? 🙂
Laura drinks coffee now?!?!?!?
Only cappuccinos and only when I need to be drugged up (all-day HTML coding, staying up all night at Sick Kids, etc. etc.)

PS, Are non-family visitors allowed?
Allowed and demanded! Though probably not tomorrow, if it’s operation day. We’ll keep everyone posted.
