Busy Week

We have had a busy week. Well with Finnian just getting over his surgery and managing his spasms and pain. The nurses truck got stolen with Finnian's car seat in it. Heart evaluation for Finnian. Mammys defiblitator surgery. Eoghans eye check up and we had to return Finnans 24 hour heart monitor. But its finally over.
All Finnian wanted to do was sleep on his side but we couldn't have that as he would have ended up sores on him. So he screamed any time we would change him or shift his position.
Bonnies truck got stolen and she had taken us to the hospital on Thursday and we had Finnian's special needs car seat in her truck. I will have to save up to get him another one as they are not cheap. Thankfully we had the regular car seat so thats what he is in now.
Thursday was a busy day as the Mammy went in to get her new defibilator and Finnian went to get his heart checked out. The Mammy came home the same day and she is doing great. She was a bit groggy and the cuppa of tea didn't taste right but she is doing fine now.
Finnian went to the cardiologist they wanted to rule out any heart involvement with his seizures. The echo was great and with the EKG there was some abnormal rhythm's but he was crying when they were doing it. They put a 24 hour heart monitor on him to see how his heart coped during his "spells". Of course he didn't have the ones that we have on video but he had a few spasm spells.
Eoghan had his eye check up today and everything was good no change in his perscription so come back in 6 months.
Finnian did great today he was sitting up a whole lot and only objected when he was moved form the car seat to his wheelchair and so on. So it looks like hell week is over. We go back on Tuseday to see Nicki the NP at the ortho's office to check out his insision and to get him cleared to go back to school. We have started to wean the valium that he was put on in the hospital for the spasms so we will just have to see how his body reacts to the withdrawl. Hopefully we will get off of it no problems.
