So sorry to the Dad's out there I didn't forget you to wish you a Happy Fathers Day I am just doing it a few days late. Sunday was a bit busy as the family came over to celebrate both Fathers Day and Finnian's Graduation.
Finnian got up coughing on Sunday morning but otherwise he was in great form. He even let us dress him up in Eoghans Kindergarten cap and gown and let us take a few pictures. But at 3 am on Monday morning I heard him basically choking and coughing, I had to get out the sucko to try to suction him. He sounded all crappy in his chest so he got major cupping on his back to try and break up the congestion. I had to resort to putting the suction cather down his nose to get the crap out. Found out today why that was his tonsils are huge, they are touching each other and his uvula is not where it is supposed to be. No wonder I couldn't suction out his throat. The ENT doesn't think its necessary to remove his tonsils but the Peds agrees with me. He has also been pulling at his ear it is full of gunk and you cannot see his ear drum. He got started on an antibotic and ear drops to remove the gunk. The peds is going to put on the medical clearence form that he suggests the removal of the tonsils.He had to miss his last day of school to go to the peds. They also are checking him for strep.
On a sad note one of the ladies at the peds office who we have known for the last 10 years passed away suddenly. Melody suffered a massive brain aneurysm at the age of 44 years. She was a Mom to 5 children the youngest is 16 years old.
RIP Melody.
