Well today has been exiting! Have you ever told Ryan that he wasn't allowed to eat first thing in the morning? Well, we didn't have to be at the hospital til 10, and they didn't take him back til almost noon ... So he was one hungry boy! He got out of surgery about 35 minutes later and he was in his room by 2 - he became the very hungry caterpillar! One popsicle, one cup of sherbet, water, a cup of strawberries, a cup of canteloupe, chocolate pudding, a peanut butter sandwich and a sprite. Then about 1.5 hours later, another cup of strawberries, cup of canteloupe, green beans and another peanut butter sandwich! Now that we're home, he's eaten a fazoli's breadstick, a clif bar, strawberries & blackberries out of our garden and is working on a lemon ice drink! I promise you- I could not make this up! I am not sure if he will ever get full today!
He has done great today - he's been so brave! He's having good pain control too! The doctor said his left tonsil was full of infection and likely where the cooties were hiding in between times of him getting sick each month.
So - here's hoping & praying this is the end and beginning all in a day's time! And please pray that the rest of Ryan's recovery goes as smoothly has today has gone. I kinda hope he was so sick with rotten tonsils & huge adenoids that recovery from removing them is a walk in the park!
Please tell us too ... How can we pray for you today?
Goodnight! ~ M
So happy and thankful to hear the good news on sweet Ryan!! Praying the next couple of days will go smoothly and he will be back to normal very quickly!!
