Feeling Better

Thanks to everyone that left a Get Well message and prayed for Evan this past week. He is FINALLY starting to feel better. He ran a fever for about 4 days and had this horrible cough, I mean horrible can't believe that's coming from him cough. I had to take him back to the pedi. on Thur. and they gave him a stronger cough medicine w/ codeine. That at least helped him sleep through the night. They say Evan has a strong gag reflex and that is why he vomits so much, I have heard this is common with heart kids. He can vomit after every cough, he coughs and gags and then vomits. It's pretty bad when your 2 year old carries a cup around to drink after every cough and runs to the bathroom if he feels like he's going to puke! He did keep up his imagination though - around Wed. he started having diarrhea from not eating and only drinking and all that flem. This is the first time since being potty trained that he has had that so when he went to the bathroom he was a little startled - he hollared for me and when I got in the bathroom I told him it was okay that it was happening b/c he was sick and he said, "No Mommy, I just had a river come out of my butt" I cracked up at his explanation of it and then he topped it off by saying, "waterfalls too, I can't wait to go to Mamaw's tomorrow and tell her I had 3 waterfalls come out of my butt." He's a hoot. Hope everyone is ready for Christmas - 6 day's left!!!
