Back From Hopital

Everything went pretty well at the hospital. Thankfully Mo stayed asleep the whole time while we were waiting and only cried during the needle parts. He's pretty compliant with requests but he has been stuck by a lot of needles and mostly does not like them.

He haf been refusing his med's from the Friday surgery, they taste horrible and sting his throat. He puts up a tremendous fuss and crying and shaking when we try to get him to take them. It makes him very tired later and the crying affects his voice. The doctors say he is healing well though. He got an anti-biotic shot, one in both legs, to get that back on track and good too as he has another ear infection or the same one that the last nine week round of anti-biotics failed to take care of.

I am home from work for the next two days taking care of the little guy. Mistress is going to shorten her hours. As attentive a father as I want to be, I can be just as helpless and frustrated and ill tempered as sick Mo who won't take a terrible taking liquid medicine.

just catching up from the weekend - you've got a lot on your plate just now, glad to hear the little guy is OK. And you're OK, in spite of the Evo Tri stuff.

I don't know the history of why your son (I assume) was in the hospital but hope things are back to normal for both him and your family soon.
