The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 7

[julia & nicks mom]

my little guy is such a trooper -

we tried one more time to get him to willingly go in the machine - no dice - I told him - you can lay down or they will give you a shot

he said "me get shot"

by the time we saw the doctor and get ready for the sedative - it was about 2:00 and he was fading quick - I still hoped he wouldn't need the sedative - but as soon as he saw the machine - he tried to run -

I felt so HORRIBLE holding him down for the IV and once they give the sedative you can't stroke them b/c the skin is too sensitive - I was holding his hand and looking in his eyes and he was pleading with me to make them stop - it was awful - thankfully he fell asleep on the first push of the IV and they did not have to give him too much medicine

he slept for two hours after - when we woke him up and he wanted the IV out - I told him once he drank his juice they would take it out - he drank his juice and when the nurse walked over with crackers he said "TAKE THIS OUT!!" she thought he was hilarious and everyone agreed he was just fine and could go home

he is asleep now - but they said he will be wobbly for the night and tomorrow - he fell off the couch twice within five minutes of getting home while trying to move around on it

and then he thought it was HILARIOUS to run around my family room b/c he was so wobbly - it was like he had the effects of spinning without spinning so he thought that was GREAT

he is mad at me b/c I wouldn't get him McDonald's on the way home - so Steve is bringing it - he had to keep down soft food first - which he did

we are going to give him tylenol and hope the headaches go away this week - I love the doctor - she gave me her cell phone and told me to call her if I need her - now that is a GREAT doctor

thank you all for your thoughts and prayers - it means the world to me that you all are here to support me!!!

I rescheduled my doctor appointment Friday afternoon and should know more about my knee then!

Kate I am still catching up, so I hope as I read further that CT scan came back normal. Here is some for you & Nick!

Hey

the doctor has no idea what is going on and decided to send Nick for a CT Scan - so we headed to Children's Hospital and he was uncooperative and freaked when they put him in the machine so he will have to be sedated - unfortunately he had eaten a few hours before and he has to go 8 hours without eating - so we could wait until tonight to see when they could fit us in or go back tomorrow at 12:30

Denise for you & Rees

The doctor just called with the results from all his tests. It is a mixed bag. Rees refluxed 22 times during the 48 hour period.

Hello everyone!!! I'M BAAACK!!

And I am exhausted!! We had a lot of fun...it was weird to have no children around. It was in the upper 90's the whole time we were there...Bill was in his glory. We laid out in the sun every day. Yesterday I came done with some strange red rash on my legs..looks like a blotchy sun burn. I was glad I didn't get the the first day, as I think it would have ruined the trip.

We saw a few shows..the biggest production was Mystere (cirque de solieil sp?) I must be the only person that just doesn't get it...everyone but me seemed to love it...it was OK, but I'd never see i again.

I doubt I'll catch up...so if someone wouldn't mind filling me in, I'd appreciate it. I hope everyone is doing well...

I saw a blurb about Nick...Kate, I hope he's doing better.

Paul...Happy belated b-day!!!!!!


Here are a couple of Pal Mickey Pics....

I'm so glad that this is over for Nick and that things are looking up. I will hope that Tylenol works for him. Poor little guy! Now, on to Friday and your results about your knee. We'll continue to think good thoughts about it, right?

Have fun with your family tonight! You deserve it!

I picked out this cute book "The Trouble With Cauliflower"..when I am done reading I am going to tell his class that I brought them all cauliflower as a treat! Then surprise them with goody bags I made last night. (Pencils, stickers, & a Hershey bar)

Um..I am a SAHM..this IS my social life!

I love it, Anne Marie! I cannot wait to hear how the kids reacted.

Welcome home, Kristine!!! Glad you had a good time in Vegas! Looks like Pal Mickey did, too!

 

[tink2020]

Kate -- I'm glad the news was good for Nick! Hopefully you can control the headaches with just tylenol for a while anyway..... migraines are no fun!

Kristine -- welcome back!

 

[PNO4TE]

OK, my entry in the name game:

ElMaHa (middle name) ElAdHa (maiden name)

blech

 

[Steamboat Marti]

Welcome back Kristine -- sorry about your rash. Get rid of it before Disney!

 

[PNO4TE]

I just spoke with Kate for the first time!!! What a surprise to have a phone call from her.

She asked me to pass on the good news that everything with Nick appears to be fine. They are thinking that he is just suffering from migraines and will treat them with tylenol for now. The other thing it could be is simply a virus.

Thanks for letting us know, Tammi. What good news!

I think they are encouraging naked swimming, as swimming suits are considered non-essential.

Diet Dr. Pepper all over my screen.......

TAG FAIRY???

 

[KristineN]

Tell me about it...I don 't remember being sun sensitive before...maybe it was the sunscreen...maybe it was too long in the sun.....maybe it was the liquor

Welcome back Kristine -- sorry about your rash. Get rid of it before Disney!
