X continues to do okay. We have gone 24 hours without vomiting or nausea, so that is encouraging. It's crazy, because there is no pattern to any of it. I do everything exactly the same, and sometimes he just pukes or needs the bucket because he is so nauseas. The only thing that is consistent with this boy, is that he is inconsistent. I still can't get over the fact this is all from a cold he got on Nov. 21st. His gut is still healing up from that one.
Which makes me hate germs. This time of year is so hard.
I ended up backing out of a commitment I made to watch my friend's children because they have runny noses ( she was kind enough to let me know ahead of time- I can't express how much it means when people do that). I feel horrible and frustrated about that.
Today was supposed to be spent at my Mom and Dad's baking, decorating, and making Christmas crafts with all the kids. I had to cancel that because someone had a fever last night. Boo. Hiss. I didn't let N go because I don't want him catching something and bringing it home. X's stuff have a impact on N and I feel bad about that.
I know X will probably catch something from the store or his homeschool classes, but I can't go somewhere knowing someone is ill. The hand sanitizer is out and we wash hands as soon as we get back from somewhere. I'll need to start asking company to wash their hands right away as well. My Thieves oil diffuser is coming out as well.
I don't remember X getting as ill before the feeding tube. In fact, he has had more illnesses since getting the feeding tube. He was rarely sick before the tube. No one has an answer about that (of course).
We did make the best of today though. We made cut out cookies, Christmas crafts, and added decorations to the house. It felt very Christmasy and there wasn't much whining or bickering. It was a fun and relaxing day.
