Spinal Day ! August 1st

Today was Tyler’s first spinal stem cell treatment, needless to say im a nervous wreck all day !!!  I got up and felt great and we had bought more eggs yesterday to make a fried egg sandwich for breakfast.  I went over & cooked us a couple & then scrambled one for tyler toput in his grits since he cant eat after 9:30 this morning.  I took one bite of mine & just about threw up, the smells here are so horrible & they were really bothering me today…i coulndt eat one bite of it & had to throw it out.  So i havent been able to eat today from being nauseated so bad from the smells here.  I cant really describe it other than as ive said before…its sewer urine some weird spice & GARLIC all rolled into one.

Tyler had his spinal at about 3:30 pm and we went down to the OR about 5 til 4 & they were waking him up..so far he is fine..he is sleeping at the moment & has to lay flat on his back for 6 hrs !!! oh boy …im purely exhausted today from wrestling with him after they put his IV port in his head for the fluids he got.  Before they put it in his foot & he was fine with it, but today they put it in his head & he doesnt like that dangling in his face pretty much.  They do things so strange her compared to our american hospitals !!!  I think they need to put it so that it goes over & behind his head then he wouldnt really know its there…but im not the medical person here…lol…well im off to sit & watch him..thats about all I can do at this point but he seems to be taking it well so far…as long as I can keep him still for the duration !!!  will report back in later tonight as to what is going on !!! wish i could figure out how to add pics here..I think I will ask one of the other dads here to help me figure it out !!!

later

Tami the tired grandma !!!!!
