Year 2 – Week 33 – Day 2

It was very good to sleep in my own bed and know that Brendan was in the next room. He is doing well and recovering. Bill was still feeling extra miserable and I made him see the doctor today. He is now on a z-pak for his sinus infection.
Trevor woke up with thick green goo glooping from his nose so we called the pediatrician and they said they could see him in 20 minutes. We flew out the door and got him straight over there.
He has a little sinus infection too and started taking his first ever bubble gum flavored amoxicillin. It doesn’t seem to have changed much since I used to take it as a kid. Other than his poor sinuses, the doctor said careful someone doesn’t trip over his giant pouty lip.

Brendan was not really himself today. His little face is puffy and flushed because of the steroid he is taking. He just seems a little groggy and distant at times, but he is way more active than he has been all week.

I broke out a play rug I bought for the new playroom to see if the boys would like it.

Trevor being sick doesn’t get him out of doing his chores! Good thing he was feeling better!

Just because he looks so cute doesn’t mean he didn’t throw some colossal fits of rolling and crying and flopping. I will take a video of one of those fits one day.

We made a first attempt to get a picture of Gramma and the boys today. They were not interested in cooperating!

Brendan is still unsure with all the changes and new people and recent hospital stay. Gramma promised him that she wasn’t another therapist and he raised an eyebrow at her with a “that’s what they all say” attitude. He is slowly letting his guard down.

Tonight before bed, the boys got some silly play time. They had to watch the video of their cousin Caleb saying “Crazzzyy” about 27 times. They still love it.

Brendan is still on 4L of O2 with his vent, but he is keeping his numbers steady. There was not a single vomit today! He just had his last dose of the steroid so maybe tomorrow he will start to feel more like himself!

  1. Good form Brenden, keep up the good work with your numbers, it must be because Gramma is there. Cute picture of her with the boys. Trevor looks more like Bill everyday. Glad you were able to sleep in your own bed and got a restfull nights sleep. Prayers that everyone continues to get better.

  2. Good Morning from the East Coast!! What a relief seeing both boys at home, playing together!! So glad that Gramma’s there safely!! Did you provide her with a surgical mask to avoid those pesty micro-organisms that invaded your home??? Good luck Gramma!! Joking aside….all of you will have help and less stress, lending much healing for everyone!! Have a great day!!! Prayers, hugs and love!!! 🙂
