We had an appointment today to remove James' dressing from surgery. The nurse practitioner in Dr Seremetis' office did it. She said he looks good. He cried through the whole process. That was very tough. He kept reaching for me but all we could do was hold his hands and try to comfort him. But it's over now. The catheter will be removed next Monday. For now, we're just using LOTS of Neosporin.
Gigi comes tomorrow!!! That's my mom for those of you who don't know. She'll be staying for at least one day. Maybe I can get her to stay longer. It will be nice to have help. Rachel was here yesterday for a while. And Matt took off today after lunch. Changing diapers is more than difficult and he's very clingy. I don't mind doing it, of course, it's just tiring and hard to do by myself.
On a side note. When James came into the post-op room on Friday, I noticed he has a third tooth! He has had two for a while now. And the two on the top have been trying to come in. The one on the left cut through on the day of the surgery and the second one is close behind. They probably aren't helping with his pain and fussiness.
Just to brag on my honey a little bit: Matt is my superman. He has washed dishes 4 times in the past week and twice has had to buy feminine items for me. So, he gets major points in the superman race. ok, time for supper. yum.
