5 Days later

It's been 5 days since Jack's surgery and he is doing ok. His energy goes from zero to normal in the space of minutes depending on how much pain he is in. We took him to Medicare yesterday and it was all too much. He has dark circles under his eyes from waking at night with nightmares and pain. The eating and drinking is going well today but when the strong pain killers run out we have to hold him down to take them so that he can swallow again. We went to Jule's place last night and it was so quiet. He still isn't there yet.

He almost found himself in time out this morning for being too rough with his brother. A sign we are feeling better.

I had to post this picture of William and Scsi because they are the best of mates. William is always looking out for her, chasing her in the walker and patting her head when he can. She comes up and kisses him on the head when he is laying on the floor. Scsi loves to sleep on the chair in Will's room so she can keep an eye on him and she has never jumped into his cot.


Here are the boys this morning. Mum was trying to pack away some clothes for William to grow into when we found ourselves in a race car. The container had wheels but it was only half a dozen laps before the engine wore out :)

Will's first words....
