Update on Hudson

My sweet little boy is doing wonderfully!!! Thank you sooo much for all the prayers! You will never know how much I appreciate them. Last Monday morning we arrived at the surgery center at 6:30am. He wasn't allowed to have any milk or food after midnight on Sunday so we were pushing it on him getting hungry. We met with the anesthesiologist ( who was AWESOME) and then Dr. Santos came in. He told us how everything would go and then prayed with us. What a blessing to have a wonderful christian doctor who truly cares about each of his patients! I would highly recommend him! A few minutes later they came in to get him. He went back with them, no tears or anything which made it alot easier on this Momma!! I'm not kidding within 15 minutes Dr. Santos came to get us and told us everything went wonderfully. He was glad we went ahead because he said his ears were alittle worse than he thought and he should be feeling much better. Right after we talked to him they called us back because he was awake. Boy was he mad!!! Which they warned us that every baby wakes up mad because they feel kinna drunk and don't know why. Anyway we stayed for about 20 minutes and they let us leave. Once we were in the car he calmed down and within an hour of the surgery he was back to his normal self.

This has been a HUGE week for him!! He has started saying some of the words he had been saying before getting so sick ANNNND he is actually starting to eat again!!!! This is HUGE for him! For the last couple of months he would eat chips, fries, cheezits or grapes. He would not even taste any other foods. He refused things like blueberry muffins for heavens sake. I was told that he probably wasn't eating because his ears were hurting, tonsils and adnoids were swollen which made his throat hurt all the time. I'm pretty sure that was the case. Wednesday night he ate 4 asperagus, noodles and tried some chicken! He has also had cantelope, honeydew, green beans, cereal, dried blueberries and a couple other things. I'm so proud! It's the little things!!! After making all of his food from 5 months until 13 months it was hard to not be able to get him to eat anything good for him! Anyway thanks again for all the prayers!!! We love you all!!!
