Ut-Oh!

The day ended badly at the hospital. Connor is just miserable, in pain, crying and inconsolable. I have had it, so Sam came home early and is giving me a break.

When it was time to de-access his port, Connor had just woken up, and the nurse always draws back first to see if she gets blood (that means it is working well and in place) No blood! That means the needle slipped out of place sometime during the day!

So I got his shirt off him and he was blown up on his side like a balloon. The medicine all went under his skin instead of in his body-so he was in bad pain from it. The nurse went to call the pharmacy, and they called the company that makes the stuff, to find out if it is dangerous (like if it was chemo, that would eat away at everything)

I called Atlanta-and the nurse checked and said he will be fine, that it will get absorbed slowly over the next day or two. I have to take him to the doctor tomorrow to get his port looked at, and make sure he is okay and I plan on giving him lots of Benedryl and Tylonel.

Thank God it was not the chemo! Hopefully by tomorrow he will be fine and the swelling will be gone.

I included some pics from the better part of the day! (Connor napping, Daddy & Connor, Adam & Connor, and one upset boy ready to go home)
