Tongue Tied No More

Rhett's surgery went well. He was out for a total of 10 minutes. The doctor said everything went well. The only struggle was coming out of the anesthesia! He was a bit grumpy! Can't blame him, that is such a weird feeling, especially when you don't understand what is going on. He screamed! And screamed some more, and some more! He would scream that he wanted something. We would give it to him, he would scream. Once we got home, he was a little calmer, ate a bowl of oatmeal and then went down for a long winter's nap. He has been fine ever since.
The doctor said it would be about a month before he gets the hang of what to do with his tongue but he doesn't anticipate any issues.

Oh man....there is still no pain like seeing your child hooked up to hospital stuff.
Will has those same jammies! :)
