this little boy scared me real bad
when a golf ball bump
showed up on his neck.
after a trip to the med professionals
the hospital started looking like the only answer.
after a blood poke, arm-pit IV, and a scan of grand proportions
we were told there was a bad infection and
we would be staying.
i had to tell him this was not a joke....
he was hooked up to noisy machines for some medicine.
he was given a great diet of chocolate products
chocolate milk
chocolate ice cream
and chocolate chip cookies which made it
a little less sad....even though a bit unhealthier.
gma came for a visit with some games and toys which
saved us from our 5th movie for the day.
we went on a wagon ride
and a piggy back ride
and then went to bed.
needles hurt coming out too...more tears!
we were able to come home today if we promised to
take the very nasty medicine they would give us at home.
the bump is still there but has gone down.
the medicine is very gross and we have to take it over 5 times a day...no fair.
our first does made ko throw up making him get
his second bath for the day.
my poor little baby.....it made me very sad. the hospital made us
tired, full from hospital food, bored, and in pain, but
we got to spend the whole day together snuggling in a small
hospital bed away from the busy world.
it reminded me of small ko, when he
was a baby and how much i loved and adored him and how
happy i was that he was mine and
that god gave him to me.
i didn't want to let anything happen to him
and knew i would do anyting to protect him
from pain or hurt.
why don't we have more quiet moments to relish in these feelings and reminders?
(that don't include hospitals of course)
it made me realize that i am a good momma
and that he is a good son.
