Tonsils...

Well this past Friday Noah went under the knife (or Laser) to get his tonsils out. Needless to say the past few days have been a nightmare. Friday night, Saturday, and Saturday night he was crying I was crying it was awful. I thought the pain killers would take all the pain away for a while but I guess not. Then it makes him sick if you don't have food in your stomach but how do you get a kid to eat when he won't even swallow his own saliva. The Dr. said you can't be his friend about drinking you must be firm and make him. Thank God for Kevin because he had to be the bad guy I just wanted to take him to the hospital and have him hooked up to fluids and morphine. Yesterday we had a set back because his body is reacting badly to the pain meds, so we are trying a new one to see if he can handle it better. Today he has had bad hours and good hours. He is fighting woth Grayson which is bad but a good sign that he is acting a little bit more normal. He ate oatmeal, mac-n-cheese and pancakes today. ( well little tiny bites of them) Our freezer and fridge is stocked with gatorade, yogurt, smoothies, applesauce, pudding, ice cream, popcicles, and dip-n-dots. Everything a little one needs. (and a mom who is emotional eating !!! LOL) The nurse said days 5,6,and7 are bad again and we will feel like we had a setback. Well those days are ahead so we will march on and perservere. Kevin did mention that we should have had Grayson's out at the same time so we could have had one weekend and week with both boys mute......LOL
