Do you want to borrow my tazor? Maybe some "It's a Small World" therapy would help!

Hmmm... both sound good. Maybe make him go through the ride 1/2 dozen times, non-stop!

Bless our doctor though for our next illness I'm sure I'll be a neurotic mess.

I did get some good pictures of Cody sacked out and of his incision and the nursing staff and the hospital. Poor kid sucks to have a mom who scrapbooks every little detail of their lives.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers during this time.

Hate to say this, but with boys it is a never ending thing. My brother had my parents at wits end, (and they blamed my other brother and I for his accidents! ) and chip still hasn't stopped his breaking or the constant cronic back pain. You learn to not panic when it happens, but do it later! And to become an advocate for the right treatment or tests!! At 23, Chip still thinks I can work miracles in his behalf.

I would love to see you post the pictures if you wish. I'd like the see the "really cool scar" and if you'd like, I'll see if I can find the one of Chip's 6 in by 2 in infected area they had to cut out of his leg cause he decided too swim with his gf before the incision was completely healed! :eek:

Doggone it! Someone swiped my nametag ! I'm just finishing packing, and my beautiful, clip on, LGMHPC nametag with DWHEATL printed across the bottom in bold black letters is nowhere to be found. .

I'd love to see a picture of that tag. It sounds so cool. How did you make it? and Yeah, my older kids and hubby wishes I wouldn't talk to everyone too, but to bad. Course when I start bartering & saving us money, he (DH) walks away but is happy that I do save the money!

Hi everyone,

Update on Cody Sick Log day ?????

Sat afternoon we all decided to go to poc2 for youngest (he's a pirate). Drove to another city to go and Cody really started looking kind of bad. He started to run a fever again and his color wasn't so good. Off to the hospital er we went (busiest ER in the state of Colorado).

Got to Er around 6pm and admitted to pediatric unit about 4am. Fun night of torture to be sure. They did another chest xray and echocardiogram. He was diagnosed with a chest mass that night. Pretty much lost my mind. Next morning off to Ct scan. Diagnoses yep it's a chest mass 4cm big but we don't know what it is from. Sunday night off to surgery to remove enlarged lymph node in neck. ENT doc thinks the mass in the chest is a lymph node like the one in the neck but will have to remove lymph node in neck to study since it is the easiest to get to.

Monday and Tuesday: 2 treacherous days of waiting for pathology results. The final pathology of the node is that it is not malignant but possibly has characteristics of Cat scratch disease (our first test for that was negative however).

Cody is pretty much bed bound these two days on Iv antibiotics and fluids. No temps after arrival to floor but getting motrin regularly for surgery pain.

Discharged today since he has had the proper antibiotic treatment for cat scratch disease now and he will just have to recuperate now. He has lost about 6 pounds (only weighed 48 pounds prior). He was a cool looking incision on his neck. (it will send fear and intimidation to opponents in hockey games as it looks like a slash to the neck). We plan on telling people that the pirate got carried away with his sword since we never go out without Brody in his pirate gear.

So that is basically the short of the story. I will try and catch up on the posts this week however I do need to get back to work so we can hopefully go on vacation soon.
