We had a bit of a scare last week. We took Noah into the pulmonologist because of excessive secretions, coughing, and a trach infection that simply won't go away with antibiotics. While at the office they recommended Noah have a chest x-ray to rule out pneumonia.
Are you kidding me???
Pneumonia???
Our Little Man CAN NOT get pneumonia right before a surgery!!!
We have had to cancel a surgery in the past because of pneumonia, I CANNOT do that again.
Fortunately, the chest x-ray came back normal and Mr. Stinkpot is good to go...so far.
We have decided, in an effort to keep Noah as healthy as possible, that he needs to be quarantined...incarcerated...in solitary confinement...just until the surgery.
Everybody needs to have a mug shot before they are locked up.
Behind bars! Locked up!
Don't forget to take your medicine.
Only a few more days before we head over to Packard Children's Hospital in Stanford. We are filled with nervous anticipation. Please keep us in your prayers.
Hey Dude. It's Sierra here. I have not posted since you were a little tike. I will be with you until you go to Stanford so you won't be totally alone. Be good for the nurses when you are in the hospital so you can come home soon.
ReplyDeleteI will miss you, Sierra
Those pictures are adorable! I hope that keeping your little guy locked up until you go to the hospital ensures his health. I will be thinking of him for his surgery!
ReplyDeleteYou guys are LOL funny! Everyone would want to be a prisoner if it meant getting such cute prison duds :-) Then again, who would be on the streets?
ReplyDeleteMany prayers will be sent your way until we know that Noah is doing well and you are all safely back at home.
Very clever!
ReplyDeleteI will keep you all in my prayers during the incarceration and surgery.
ReplyDeleteStay healthy little dude! Home is not a bad place to be hanging out for a while.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe journey bud! Good blessings and come home safely!
ReplyDeleteGenius. What can be my motivation for a mugshot for Jonah? I think there should definitely be one in the baby book!
ReplyDeleteOMGOSH... LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOTS of prayers and well wishes for the little DUDE NOAH (and the 2 big dudes too) while he is incarcerated, and during and after the BIG surgery. ONLY THE BEST OUTCOME for the 3 of you! Hugs to all from the Hoods in AZ.
ReplyDeleteI never ceased to be amazed at the creativity of the Jackson family. :) Noah's surgery date is boldly noted on my calendar and there will be lots of prayer for you all on that day. God bless!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you guys. Being cooped up is not easy...for him and you! Praying for his health and for surgery success.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you! Wishing you safe travels, health, loads of hospital related patience and a successful surgery and peaceful recovery!
ReplyDeleteBest. Mug. Shot. EVER! I hope the quarantine keeps him healthy, and I will be thinking of your family over the next week and sending hope-it-all-goes-well vibes your way.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you, Noah, Beck, Kc... sending love and well-wishes....
