I have to tell you (as if you didn't already know) my little man if by far the toughest and bravest kid around....much more so than his Mommy!
So.....yesterday I spent the entire day worrying about this appointment. I was feeling excited for all the possibilities this could bring but sad and angry that my boy had to endure ANOTHER painful procedure. I know prematurity will ALWAYS be apart of our lives....but, it just sucks sometimes.
Please do not get me wrong. I know how blessed we are, how blessed John is. He is ALIVE and happy. Our life is wonderful and I know we have it easier than A LOT of people.
Anyways, he had 4 injections....1 on the inner thigh and the other behind his knee (on each leg.) As soon as the first injection went in he screamed bloody murder (my mom could hear him in the waiting room)...my heart was racing! It took everything I had to hold back my own tears. Thankfully it only took about 30 seconds and then he was back to his smiley self! We should be able to start seeing small changes within about a week.
I tell ya, we are SO grateful, not for what we have taught John but for what he has taught us!!!!
