Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 And Zach is doing great! He is one tough little guy. He came through the surgery wonderfully, and is handling it all very well. (Better then his mommy!!) He is bruised and swollen, but that isn't even slowing him down. I came home exhausted and fell right to sleep, but he is still up and going. He has a script for tylenol with codiene, but wouldn't even take the regular tylenol, and anything since before surgery, until just recently when I bribed him with drinking soda in between each chewable. Right now the bruising is really starting to show, and you can see the port from under the skin. Its on his left side about 2 inches above his nipple and look like a quarter under the skin. He also has a dressing that he will keep on till he goes back on the 1st to get his infusion. Now we have to just pray that it doesn't get infected and that we can keep it dry. It was the first surgery that Zach has ever had that he didn't have a tough time with. I know it wasn't as evasive as the others, but I still was pretty worried. Thanks so much for the prayers, I really could feel them today! Love~MG & Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 MG, I am so glad that it went smoothly. Nick has had three central line surgeries and they weren't as easy for Nick as Zach is making it seem! Way to go Zach! I hope you are able to get some rest. Amy, mom to: , 19 months old.
