Re: We are back home

Hi :

I'm glad Caleb did not need to be hospitalized or given an IV amd even

took some fluids from the Dr! Kids are so funny like that!

I hope he gets better today. Please keep us posted.

> Thanks to everyone for their advice. We are back home. She, our Ped,

was very apprehensive about giving Caleb an IV. She agreed he was

dehydrated. She did manage to get him to drink. It was the exact same

stuff I had here at home!! She said that often a change in environment

is what is needed. He wanted a grilled cheese and fries on the way

home and ate those. He was so tired when we got home that he laid down

on our family room floor to sleep. I picked him up to carry him to his

room and he started coughing. He coughed so much and so hard he was

vomiting......UGH!!! Hopefully though we are on the right track. My DH

will be home tomorrow with the boys so maybe I can escape for awhile.

They did suggest applesauce, bananas, etc...it has a lot of water and

will help keep him hydrated. Thanks again.

was urinating some but it was very concentrated & he was listless.I

took him into the ER & they hydrated him & it turned him completely

around.I had thought he was feeling so bad from the surgery but it was

actually from the dehydration.

I'm so happy to hear that your little man is on the mend. Please keep

us posted.

Thanks for all the notes of condolences . Im just very glad she is not

miserable in that nursing home any longer. We were more than prpared so it

was not a shock.

I'm glad it all went well, and even the girls were good. :-) It really

means a lot.

Don't be surprised, though, of the grief you'll feel. . . it'll happen and

it's okay.
