We took him to his Surgeon appt. yesterday.He had to have yet another x-ray, but we were told he will be x-rayed to death.His Dr. showed us the x-ray.He still has Pnemonia and will for awhile as we have heard for about the 100th time.But, the good news is it's getting better.
His right lung is now only showing the size of a soft ball sized Pnemonia in it.
We are soooooooooo happy with that news.She gave him the all clear to resume normal things.
She told me that I am doing an excellent job with keeping the chest tube holes clean.
They are healing very nicely in her words.
The only sad thing for me, is now he has to go back to School
My baby won't be here with me to chat with and color with.
I will be all alone during the day again.But, the good part is he's getting better.

He still has about 18 days on the antibiotics and has to go back to her next month for another x-ray and re-check.He's also gaining some weight back.

So, thank you all for all the prayers and everything.With out the support of my friends here, I'd be lost.
I can only hope that when you all need me, I can do for you what you have for me and my family.
Thanks for the PMs, e-mails everyone
Nita and Belinda, thanks for the calls to check on MeanBoy and me.I love you both.

Love to all here!!!

I'm so glad to hear he's getting better! And he's so lucky to have you for a mom... I believe you truly saved his life.

That's great news!
We'd come color with you, but our coloring is on restriction to Color Wonder paper and markers only. We (my 3 yr old DD and I) are really tired of the Magic Eraser and wall scrubbing this month...

I've been told by more than one Dr. that I did
Thank you for those kind words!
I just followed my Mothers instincts and KNEW something was wrong.

Thank you evryone!!!! My family and I thank you ALL from the bottom of our hearts.
I wish we all lived close enough so that we could have a *color date*

Up to my eyeballs in Thomas the Tank Engine undies
I am so happy to hear he is getting well
Poor fella has been through so much. I'm glad he'll be able to start being a little boy again. I would happily come color with you also. In fact, I have a little one who is just learning how to color, so we can teach him

Awww...those vibes are working, aren't they?

So glad to hear of little Seth's progress...it's only going to get better from here. How are the rest of your sickies doing at home? Is everyone else on the mend too?

We're all thrilled for you, and for your little son.

Sending more get well vibes for the extra "ooompphhh!"
