Marshalls Surgery

Marshall had to get some surgery done to fix a hernia he had and to pull down his testicals. So fun stuff. Here he is all dressed up in his little hospital gown playing with the toys waiting for surgery.Here he is in his wagon after they gave him some relaxing medicine so he wouldnt get to mad when they wheeled him away from mom and dad. He had lots of fun playing in the wagon.
Here we are right after surgery. The surgery took about an hour. Then I got to go back and see him right after in the recovery room. He wasn't there for too long before we went to his room and dad got to come back to join us. Poor kid hated his IV and he got a hold of it once and almost got it pulled out.
They wouldnt let us leave till he drank something. And Marshall was not up for drinking ANYTHING. He just wanted to sit on mom's lap holding the cup. So then we tried crushed ice with rootbeer and I spooned that into his mouth and he did pretty good with that. So then they let us leave. Poor guy has been sleeping most the day and is pretty miserable when he is awake. I changed his diaper when we got home and really got to see the damage and oh man he looks like he's hurting. But the doctors said everything went well and they were able to get done everything they were needing to do so that was good! Wish Marshall good luck on the next 2 days. We pretty much are just keeping him drugged up to help with the pain.

Oh, that makes me so sad. Poor little guy! and mommy and daddy! I think having the child hurt makes the parents hurt too. You have my sympathy! I hope he gets better soon.

Poor Marshall. I hope he has a fast recovery. Everyone's blogs lately is about injured people and I feel bad I am not there to help. :(
