Hayden's Hospital Trip

Well we are home and doing well. I wanted to share with you the update on our little guy and a few pictures from our day! (with our new camera I might add) Well we were to be at the hospital at 6am this morning. When I got Hayden up this morning I thought he felt really warm. He had already started doing his night whimpering and I thought it was because of his stuffy nose. The sad part was that in sign...he was saying he wanted a drink and I couldn't give him his sippy. So we got to the hospital and put his little gown on...the nurse came and took his temp....100.8 My first thought was oh no...they aren't going to do it. The first couple of pics are when we got to the hospital. Since he wasn't feeling good and also since we got him out of bed at 5:15am...he just wanted to lay there.


He eventually fell asleep......


After the nap!



They had to contact the doctor to make sure to go ahead (because of th
e temp) and give him his meds to knock him out. The doctor said that it was probably because of his ears and said go ahead. The surgery began right at 7:50am and was complete at 8:10. The doctor came out and gave us this report. Hayden did have another ear infection (4 in 2 months) and so they drained out the pus from that, then also cleared out his sinuses (he was stopped up yesterday and today), and also noticed growth on his tonsils. They are getting those tested and the results will be back Thursday. Could be strep. He will be on a medicine through the weekend to help with that til we find out Monday what it is or was. Tubes were put in and adenoids were taken out. We were able to leave the hospital a little after 10:20 I believe. We were home and resting at 10:50am. Hayden got up at about 1 and eventually had 2 bowls of jello, 1 bowl of applesauce, and some mash potatoes. The little guy was hungry. At about 2:30 Hayden was ready for another nap. I'm going to add a few more pics below.




Thank you for your prayers.
