June-July 2011
Owen also had an operate a week and a half ago, the one i mentioned a few months ago about his hips, coming out of joint, well he had his operation to release his tendon, and he was the most perfect little boy you could imagen to go through it, he had to lay in a bed for 2 days not being able to move and his legs in a big wedge, even though Owen doesn't have his dummy unless he's very upset i took 6 just incase, but he hardly needed it, the only time he cared or moaned was when he was in a little pain, or because he was tired, he was so brave, he hardly needed his dummy, before Owens operation his doctor mention now that he has gone downhill, his breathing has got worse so he may end up in the future in intensive care or the high dependency unit, so the doctor book a bed in intensive care just incase, which i thought was a little drastic, but then again he's more likely to no, after Owens operation he didn't need intensive care though, but he did go to the high dependency until for 24 hours just to make sure his breathing was ok, and the next day we were back to a normal ward, Owens heart rate was sky high for about 3 days, but we didn't no if that was normal or not, so im thinking of investing in a heart monitor now, we spent 5 days in hospital we went in on the Tuesday and came out the Saturday, which he wasn't still in a big wedge, he now has some specialist shorts that keep his legs apart, so we went to my mums for a little bit then we went to my cousins summer party that he has every year, it was a nice party and i thought Owen would have being tired or in pain and had to leave but he was perfectly fine, he hardly moaned and didn't even go to sleep until half 9, he wasn't allowed at school last week due to them not being able to change his dressings, which this week i am taking of and leaving of, he has dissolvable stitches, but i just don't like were the stitches are, there just in the groin area on both side, so every time he went to the toilet in his nappy they had to be changed, at first it was very hard to change as he was in pain as were now its just like normal.
I am going on holiday this year, i haven't being in over 10 years, im afraid to say Owens not going due to the heat, its to hot here at the moment so i wouldn't even think of taking him abroad, im looking forward to it very much but its for 2 and a half weeks (16 days) so i am going to miss Owen like crazy, but i no hes going to be in safe hands, as he's at a respite house for 5 days then another the next 5 days then at his dads the rest, and i will ring or text every day to now how he is doing, the first few days may be hard as my phone will be finding the right signal as were driving though to Spain, so we'll go through France then to Spain, which i cannot wait as i like my travel, and i like to think of myself as a sightseer LOL, but were not going on holiday to a hotel also, i am going with my mum and her partner and my baby sister, all in a little 4 seat car, and its my mums partners caravan were staying in for 2 and a half weeks, so there in the caravan im in a tent, but im looking forward to it, and my sister and her partner are coming over for 10 days also,
Will keep you updated
