He had eye surgery a couple of weeks ago. It was to open his right eye's tear duct. It had been closed since he was born and has always run tears. The past few months it has been infected and green goopy. We had to take him to the hospital for the procedure since they put him to sleep. He did great and all the nurses in the prep and recovery rooms were telling us what a good baby he was. We went home a few hours later and he didn't even know what had just happened to him. We are waiting to see if the surgery was successful. He was on oral antibiotics last week for a cold, and that clears his eye infection up. So once the antibiotics are out of his system we'll be able to tell if he has to go back to do it again or not.
My dad went home after 8 weeks in the hospital. He was home for a few days and then went back in a week ago because of a staph infection. He finally got to come home Thursday. We have him all set up in a hospital bed in his bedroom with his home vent and feeding tube. He's got nurses that stay with him while mom is at work, and during the night. He sure was glad to see Eston since we could not take Eston to the hospital into ICU. Even Alli and Zoe were happy to see him last night. They did not understand why they couldn't jump up on his bed and tell him "hi." They were whining and staring at him.
Happy Father's Day to everyone!!
