Recovery

Well it is all over, those darn tonsils and adnoids are OUT OF HERE! The surery went very well. No complications. We had to be to the hospital at 6am. So we went to bed a little early. Zack woke up with no problem, but soon realized that it was the day for surgery. He freaked and asked if we could do this another day. I was strong and said "No hunny, the Dr had told all of his other patients to wait, just so he could take care of you." That made him feel pretty special, after that there was no problems. We went to the waiting room and the nurse gave him some medicine for anxiety. I don't know what it was but man if that is on the streets I totally understand why you would want it. Zack was helarious to watch. He went from normal 100 question zack to stoner in under 5 min. He kept staring at me and saying "Mom you have three eyes!" Then he would reach for me even though I was to far away. I will see if I can get the clip I recorded on my phone up here.
So then they came to put an IV in and couldn't find any veins. He has my luck there. They had to put one in his foot. So then they put him in a wagon and wheeled him off. He smiled and waived good bye. Brad and I waited for about 1 hr and then he was all done. We went to his room and tried to help him wake up and drink and eat a popcicle. That was a challenge. But he soon woke up and we took him home with some minor pain meds and antibiotics. So from then till now he has done well he wants to eat things that he can yet. Brad and I are closet eaters now. We don't want to torcher him so we only cook things he can eat and we don't eat what he cant infront of him.
So all was well up untill last night, Zack woke up three times screaming and crying that his throat hurt. I gave him medicine as I could but in the middle I had to just give him cold things to suck on to help. Poor guy. All day he has had to have his medicine on time or else I am suprized with another screaming crying attack. They warned me about days 5-7 of the recovery, saying that the scabs are comming off and so there is a higher chance of bleeding and more pain. Cory also gave me a little heads up. Zack is worried that he won't be able to eat on thanksgiving. I was thinking about that and really the only things he can't have are the meat,rolls or crunchy things. Like the topping of green bean casarole but he can have the beans and sauce. etc.
We are having Thanks Giving at hour house for the McMackins. Not many are coming this year maybe 16. But we are also going to my mom's in the afternoon. I enjoy cooking and epending family time together. I think this is my favorite holiday. Also I love the colors and time of year so that probably has alot to do with it. The one bad thing is this is going to ruin my diet! I haven't been really good but all this good food won't help. I have a game plan that I have to eat all my healthy food first and only 3TBS of yummy stuff. I hope that will help. We will see. I am still at 30 lbs nothing more lost and none gained(thank goodness). I have so much diet food I won't need to order again till next year. I am determined to meet my goal so after this excuse of a meal I will be on the ban wagon again! To do the things I want to do I have to drop atleast 60 more LBS. SO help me stay on track and DON'T TEMPT ME!
Aside from all that I am doing well. I had a Scentsy party last week and it was a good one. I have had three orders and over $1300.00 of product sold and more orders everyday. This side job really has paid off. It pays for my diet food and I get free stuff. What girl doesn't like that? Well I have lots to prepare for the up comming day so TaTa for now.

Doctors Visit

Well today I took Zack to the Dr office to check up on his adnoids. We had taken him back in August and they were large, not infected, not swolen, just large. They are blocking his air ways thru his nose and affect him while he is sleeping. You may have noticed that he has an airyness to his voice, that is also due to the darn adnoids. When we first went to the dentist he asked that we have Zack breath thru his nose as much as possible, it is the healthier way to breath you have a natural filter in your nose(hair), and it helps with bad breath and cavities. Well Zack can't do it for even one minuete untill he has to open his mouth to breathe. To understand what it is like press your thumb to soft top of your mouth way in back and then try and breathe. Not easy huh!?!
So today I saw his tonsils, all of them. They are blocking 75% of the airway thru his mouth. So he can't breathe thru his nose and can't hardly breathe thru his mouth. This means that we will have to take them all out. Surgery is planned for next week. He will only miss two days of school and I will just go in late to work. (I am so glad my job is flexiable!) Zack is so worried that he is going to die in surgery. He said well PaPa Ross needed surgery and he died. I had to explain alot before he understod the difference. I am not relly nervous about him haveing this surgery, I am more concerned with how he is handeling it. Brad of coarse is not doing well he is going to be sick untill it is all finished(maybe I should have sceduled it sooner so he doesn't stress for so long).
Other that the above we are all well. I am excited to have everyone over for my Scentsy party. I don't usually have these kinds of parties at my house, but I sell the dang stuff and I don't want to place an order every week till christmas. So this is your chance to get all that you want and in time for the holidays.
I am going take this blog private. I read the KSL story and there really are just to many weirdo's in this world. I have had people I don't even know comment on mine before so I guess I had better do is today. If you want to be added to my list of people then email me or leave a comment. I will change to privete on 11.14.08. Hope to see you all soon!
