Sounds like a lot of fun to me. His nose sure is a lot of maintenance considering he can't even smell out of it. :)
He was very nervous about the IV. I had to take him to get blood work done earlier in the week for Pre-Op and was very brave.
Of course, I didn't get to see it in person because Bubba wanted daddy to take him.
I stayed home with the other kids and just waited by my phone for pictures and updates.
Before surgery:
Tubba and Wiggy and made nice pictures/signs to hang for Bubba when he returned.
Cousin Natalie even made a picture for Bubba and emailed it to us. Bubba liked knowing that all of our family was praying and thinking of him.
Getting ready to go in for the big show!
Grandma Baer sent him some money to get something to "console" him during/after surgery. So he used the money to buy the Skylanders game on his 3DS. He brought the game with him while he was waiting.
Luke said when Bubba woke up he was looking around and said," What happened?"
They prescribed Bubba some Tylenol with Codeine for the pain. We gave him half of one dose to try it out. He threw up a few hours later, but it was mostly blood. Hard to know if it was medicine or everything he swallowed after surgery. So, we didn't give him anymore.
Bubba's best friend came over that night to check on him and brought him a drawing too. It was very nice.
The next day Grandma Hogue and Aunt Jenny had some cupcakes delivered and his appetite slowly picked up.
His best friend and his mom dropped off a bunch of Tutti Frutti for Bubba. He was so spoiled!! They were in heaven!
My custom sign that got hung up for Bubba on the shower door before he got home from surgery.

Wow!! That's a lot for a little guy to go through! Glad to hear the surgery went well!
So sorry! No fun! I hope he healed quickly. Enzo's T&A was miserable, and that seems more minor than this!
