Update on Boys..

They have been doing better and have only had a little
bit or blood and last night and today no blood.

So, I decided to let them play for a bit and told them
no running and that they had to play quiet games. Well
Ryan ended up hitting Justin in the nose and
immediately Justin was bleeding. It took me some time
to get it under control and now it is just a slow
bleed. (Praise God). The Dr had also told me to change
Ryan's cotton wed.-thurs. so I noticed that Ryan's
cotton was coming out and looked really yucky... as I
took it out the scab came with it and he started to
bleed really bad. Again, I have gotten it to a slow
bleed. I feel so awful for them, I made the wrong
judgement call and caused Ryan to bleed and start over
again.

We are pretty much back at step one.. trying to get a
scab to form. My little Guys now have to go back to
stying in bed and resting. They are also now having to
eat soft foods again.


I feel so awful about this. Had I just left Ryan alone he would be ok, I made the wrong call on that. I am being tested and I don't know why. I have been in the house for almost a week now, just leaving to go to the Dr. i feel so bad for them. They are so precious and are so amazing. They should be at Chuck E Cheese or out playing in the snow.. instead they are stuck in the house.


I hope that you are not all sick of me by now. I just don't have anyplace else to vent and mention my anxiety...can't get to my therapist.

Hi Heather!

I have just discovered this board so I'm afraid I don't know all the details of your story. If you don't mind sharing, I would love to know. I have 18 month old twin girls and felt compelled to contact you... especially knowing you are alone right now!

Thanks,

Krys

Heather,

Vent all you want, I would never get sick of you. I think you are a very special Mom and you are doing a great job. I know this is hard right now so lean on us all you want. Just having someone to talk to will help.

Take care,
Lisa

You followed the doctor's orders, Heather. I would've done the same. Especially since today is Wed. & the gauze was looking yucky. This is part of their healing process. A new & better scab will form. We're here for you. Good luck & GBU! I hope you can get out soon. Can someone stay with the guys tomorrow if the bleeding subsides? Just an hour to the gym? I know it's hard to breakaway, but for your emotional well being, it's a must. Keep in touch! (((hugs))) jan
