Bryce has spent his entire Christmas break sick!
And I mean SICK! He was basically
unconsious for 4 days with a high fever and
horrible cough! Then, right after Christmas
he started complaining that his stomach hurt.
I just figured it was all related and he wasn't complaining
too much. Until Friday morning when I drove Christa to the
airport, he called me and said it was really bad and he couldn't
stand up straight. When I got back I took him to the doctor to see if he was
having appendicitis. She was pretty confident that's what it was and also
said his lungs sounded like he could have pneumonia. She sent us straight to
the hospital where they did some blood work and a cat scan of his belly and
xray of his lungs. Sure enough, his appendix was really sick. They took him
back for surgery after a few hours waiting in the ER (they are never very quick!)
He stayed over night in the hospital and got to come home
after lunch the next day. He already feels much better! And here
are his battle wounds. Hopefully he will recover quickly because
next week he has to start training for his next LaCrosse season! Poor
kiddo, hopefully he won't get sick again for a LONG time! He's had
more than his fair share! And coughing, by the way, does NOT
feel so good to the tummy after you have surgery!
