and this week has definitely been full of crazy thunderstorm,hurricane,tornado type weather. leaving work on Tuesday and my car wouldn't start. apparently i lost an alternator belt somewhere along my journey to work that day so we luckily were able to catch a ride with Skip's buddy as they were on their way home from work. I did sadly miss Serenity's first class back to gymnastics since the holiday break & her surgery and i honestly don't know if in the 3 years she has taken gymnastics if I've ever missed an entire class :( Wednesday my mom had to pick Serenity up from school for me because of everyone's work schedules and then i had to swing by and pick her up on my way home, giving us enough time to drop Xavier off at the house and get over to church which she was then a tad late for. By Thursday there was a meeting that i really wanted to attend (for some volunteering that I do with the local food bank) but was so whooped that I didn't get to make it. Then on Friday i go to take the girls to school and the passenger window was frozen but i didn't realize it was as bad as it was until i heard the motor make a huge yucky i'm broken kind of noise which then wouldn't let it go up or down. Sharon went to go to work and her car wouldn't start at all so i let her use my 1 working car and luckily was able to use skip's car because he again had ridden with his friend to work. Sharon had to leave work early to get Serenity from school and all while they are getting settled at the house Xavier is at work with me and as he woke up from a nap he promptly came out onto the shop floor and threw up blood. I freaked out like crazy, i understood that it was more than likely just something with having his tonsils removed but the size of the clots were making me a little nervous. he was then fine so we just decided to watch him the rest of the evening. By Saturday he was still fine so off both kiddos went with grandma to get themselves some much needy grammy time :)
Skip and I did some fun things like a trip to the goodwill and the grocery store because do to the new schedules everyone is on it is now Saturday night and I haven't had a chance to do grocery shopping yet. I called my mom on the way home to see if the kids were staying the night and Xavier is in her car puking blood again. We went and meet her and while i cleaned him up and changed him Skip got on the phone with the on call Dr. and he said to meet him at the ER, where we had the surgery, which is about an hour away. so off we go and we send Serenity (and some of our groceries, you know the ones that needed to just get to the house and get in the fridge) with my mom. I talked with the Dr. once on the ride up and he has told me that he has called the hospital and he has them prepping the OR because more than likely they are going to have to do surgery on him. We get there and wait and wait and when i said the Dr. said he called no one acted like they had any idea what i was talking about. finally after waiting 20 or so minutes we get called back and start the process of getting him prepped to go back to surgery. the on call Dr. told us that in most cases the scabs just fall off and they heal fine and about 1% of the time they are so bad that a second surgery is required. so thanks you Xavier for helping keep that 1% alive and kicking :)
He went back not nearly as easy as he did the first time because he just wanted to go home. everything went well though and we finally got home and in the bed and so far this morning it is completely the beginning again :(
he's back to Popsicles,jello and nothing red. his mouth is hurting and he has to be chill. haha
praying that this time it holds though and my boy can be healed and done with all of this
