When I woke up Mommy came to the room to get me and gave me some juice and stayed with me until they said I was ready to go to my room. I wasn't sure why we had to stay, but my face hurt more than last time and they gave me more medicine. I got some phentenol something or other and later on some oxycodone. Mommy said they had to cut further down to check out my bone and see what was going on. She said they found some of my plates that were breaking up and that was causing the infection, but they cleaned it all out and I should be good to go.
Then we went back to this short stay place. They say if you are only going to be there 24 hrs that is where you go. It was cool, the nurse had me in my crib and was rolling me around and we went on an elevator and she said I was doing so good. And then I met another nurse and we took some more medicine. It wasn't that bad, except for this thing they had on my hand. Okay, I have had IV's before, but this was crazy. It was pretty big and in my wrist, so they had special wrapping on it and then Mommy and the nurse decided they needed to put a sock over it so I would try to pull at it, but then they took away my fingers! That is was got me frustrated the most. I couldn't really pull myself up or crawl around and all of these wires! And sticky stuff on my chest, even Mommy didn't like it because it was hard to pick me up with all of these things hanging down. But I ended up having a bottle and falling asleep with Mommy for a bit and then Daddy came! It was good to see him. Daddy picked me up and switched places with Mommy and then I fell asleep on him in the chair.
That night wasn't so bad and I felt a lot better in the morning. And we got to go home! Dr. Liau came down to show Mommy and Daddy my scan that morning and said everything looked really good. Mommy and Daddy were happy. I just thought it was cool that I could see my head on the computer screen!
It was great on Saturday, we got home early from the hospital and I got to see my new car! Well it is not new, but it is new to me. I had never been in Daddy's car and he fixed it this weekend and we went out in it! It was pretty cool. On Sunday I was hanging outside with Daddy and Mommy and Jersey just sitting in the backyard laughing and playing in the sun. Mommy got the bubbles to work and they were pretty cool too!
Titi Chell and her friend Mickey came over on Sunday. Titi Chell bought me this cool turtle toy thing with a hammer. I was trying to figure it out. I really like to take the hammer and bang it on the table! That was fun and everyone seemed to react when I did it! We also went shopping, well that is what Mommy said, I was asleep the entire time. Titi Chell bought me my Easter outfit and said that Pop-Pop was buying Nino and Lauren their Easter outfits on the same day, so we had to do it also. Mommy said I got new shoes and a new outfit and she wants to take pictures next week so we will see how this all works out! She keeps talking about these pictures things. I mean we take pictures all the time, what can be so special about going somewhere to take pictures?
Okay, I need to stop talking all of this has made me sleepy. Here are some hospital pics from Friday.
Here I am listening to the nurse, waiting to go to the back to get gassed.
These were after surgery. My face was still numb and I was a little out of it. You can see my yellow sock covered hand in one of the pictures. Oh you see how red my cheeks are, that is because the tape they put on me pulled my skin off!!!
This was a little dark. It was really early in the morning and I was trying to break out of my crib!
