TGIF!!

Obviously it has been one of those weeks if it isn't one thing it is another. Here it goes.

Tuesday: Alex was feeling ok, he was drinking and eating. But by the time Tuesday evening rolled around the pain was sinking in and Jeff and I were worried that he wasn't getting enough fluids. And we didn't want to end up on the pediatric unit for fluids. So we decided to ship him off to bed and sleep it off and we would start fresh in the morning and re-evaluate.

Wednesday: Alex is still in pain so we ended up calling the Dr. and just giving him an update because we were still worried about his fluid intake. It was the weirdest thing by lunch time Alex had done a 360 and was eating and drinking and actually taking down his meds. What a relief. This whole process has been mentally and physically draining on me let alone Alex. Jeff also made the comment on how we should've waited until he was ten to do the tonsilectomy.

Thursday: I think we have turned a new corner Alex happens to be talking more but for some reason he doesn't want to talk to Jeff. Who knows! After I had put Bradley down for a nap we decided to go for a walk around the farm with Grandma Weir. It was nice to get some fresh air.

Friday: Today is TGIF and we are making even more progress. He is becoming the old Alex without tonsils. Running out and asking for snacks giving me weird faces oh and don't forget being mean to his little brother. What more could we ask for.
