If you saw Asher today you would never know he had surgery yesterday.
You'd never know that he has two fresh, painful incisions, probably made worse because they reside within a diaper.
You'd never know that a certain part of his body was taken out (still attached!), inspected, put back in and then sutured in place, much lower than where it originally was. TMI? Ya sorry, it is. But after punching "orchiopexy" into youtube, none of that seems like too much information for me. Take it from me first hand, unless you want to be permanently traumatized you should NOT watch a video the surgical procedure Asher went through yesterday. It's not pretty.
The kid is amazing. Happy, smiling and not complaining. Medicated every 4 hours to stay on top of his pain, but otherwise you would never know anything was wrong.
There are a lot of things you would never know about Asher by looking at him. That's what makes him so special.
1 very special little man who came from 2 very special people, all part of a 5 very special people team.

ReplyDeleteShort and to the point, I love it.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Jaden is also at risk of needing that surgery. His doc says he's in the clear, but I dunno... it's still up there a little bit. But of course, I'm no expert in these things.... :)
Oh and grats on BlogHer ads! I think those are new since the last time I was here.
I wish I read the thing about youtube before K's big surgery. Yeah I have never youtubed any of the procedures since. But glad to hear he is bouncing back!
ReplyDeleteSpecial he certainly is!
ReplyDeleteThe Ash Packet rocks it once again. bt
