My poor little Rowdy turned one on April 3rd, and since then has had maybe the worst 2 weeks ever!
It all started 2 days after his birthday, it was Saturday morning and we where having pancakes with Grandma and Grandpa, when Rowdy crawled over and grabbed the pilot light on their fire place.
He spend the weekend in the Phoenix Burn and Truama Center where they took great care of him. He has 3rd degree burns on 3 of his fingers, and has lost most of the skin on his index finger...we are just so happy that he was able to come home with all 10 of his little fingers. But it has been so hard to watch him in pain, he has a ton of healing to do but everyday it gets a little better.
Jimmy and I are getting really good at changing his "dressing" on his hand. I have even made it threw a few changings without crying.
Tuesday morning we took him up to the burn clinic to see the doctor, when truma number 2 started! On our way up Rowdy started throwing up, by Tuesday night he had a tempeture of 102.7 and we ended up taking him to a pediatic Urgent Care, only to find out that he has the stomach flu!
He has had a high temp. now for a couple of days, and isn't able to keep any of his food down at all. Our biggest problem is he keep throwing up on his hand, that can't get wet!
Yesterday I took him to his doctor and we where waiting for him to come check him, when I decided it was time to have a little talk with him. Our conversation went something like this...
"Rowdy your one years old now welcome to reality! Life isn't about laying around drinking formula, and pooping your pants all day, things are going to be ruff, it's how you deal with it that counts!"
And just so everyone knows he is dealing with everything amazingly! He is much much stronger then his mommy! But together we are all dealing with this truma...we are just so thankful for everyone who has been praying for him, and thinking of us!
