Parker got home from a week at EFY and had a couple of days until he got his wisdom teeth taken out. We bought a lot of cold, soft things for after the surgery.
Here he is getting ready to go in.
(This was the same place (& same doctors) that I had my wisdom teeth taken out many moons ago!)
He did really well during the surgery. He only had laughing gas. He walked out on his own and was himself on the way home. (The kids were hoping for some funny things to happen, but nope!) This was our contraption we made with Calissa's scarf to help hold the ice packs. 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off all day! Feels like all I did was change ice packs, give him medicine, and feed him that day.
He was such a trooper and did really well taking care of himself. We were a little worried about him getting liver clots since he had them last time he had teeth pulled, but nothing bad happened! He did get quite swollen on one side. The other side was swollen too, but not quite as bad.
Here is the lovely bruising about 4-5 days later.
So glad (for all of us) that this is done. Getting closer to a mission everyday!
