Our oldest had his wisdom teeth removed today {all 4}… What a terrible experience… As soon as his eyes were opened from surgery, they had him in a wheel chair and asked us to pull the car around to the back of the building, that right there should tell ya something… Like they don’t want the other patients in the waiting room to witness, all the BLOOD, that was pouring out of his mouth… I looked at the attendant and said, you expect me to take him in my car bleeding like that?? He said oh it’s normal to bleed after surgery… I’ll change his gauze one more time and then you can change it for him every 30 minutes for the next two hours… Let me tell you, we went through the entire bag of gauze before we even got to Lodi. By the time we got home from the pharmacy with his antibiotic, and 2 pain meds. He was throwing up… Apparently the anesthesia made him nauseous… Figures, {that happened to me too} so by noon, when my hubby was at the drug store buying more gauze, I was on the phone crying to my mom pleading for her to take the other three boys to her house when she got off work this evening, {I really didn’t have to plead she was way more than willing, even got off right then and there drove around the corner, she works directly behind my house and picked up the three little brothers}… Not that they were being difficult or hard, our boys are SUPER easy… but… Let’s just say Chris has serious GRUMPY issues after being put under and when in pain, the noise and distraction was just too much. FINALLY as of 6 PM this evening the bleeding and throwing up has stopped… What an EXTREMELY hard day, I am so very thankful my hubby was off to help, I am also beyond thankful my parents are so near and willing to take my kids and fill their days and nights with GREAT FUN….
I would be very grateful if someone would come over and decorate my house for fall, I am thinking it will never happen, and after today I am not in the mood… Here’s to hoping for a better day tomorrow and praying for quick healing for our son.
