jude's last surgery has been a total and complete nightmare. let's just say he got an infection on all the area's treated and we have been trying to deal with that. it has been almost 4 weeks and its still rearing its ugly head and won't go away. i had to take him back to primary childrens 2 weeks after his surgery because it was all crusted and scabbing and green and oozing. totally disgusting to look at and totally painful for my sweet jude. the 3 hour increments of motrin were just not cutting the pain for jude.
dr. vanderhooft recognized the infection and gave him and oral antibiotic, a topical antibiotic, and lortab to ease his pain. my poor baby was in so much pain, especially when he sleeps because if he lays on his it disturbs it and opens the wound or pulls at the scabs. it has been terrible. i feel so bad for my darling little monster. i didn't take any pictures because i wasn't thinking and it looks really bad. just use your imagination.
he is slowly getting better but still has a hard time turning his head because his neck is so scabbed that its so tight. he is still silly old jude but you can tell he is in pain. most of the time he tells me about it. also, he likes to pick his scabs. when i tell him "no", he says "no" to me and then tells me "bye bye" and to leave. i love him.
