Day by Day..

Every morning we do dressing changes on Gavin...

Friday morning.. lots of screaming, and a nervous mommy...

Saturday morning.. more screaming..

Sunday morning.. little screaming and sleeping baby....

Awww how I liked this morning. It was so much better.

The difference was he was fed, we were fed, he had his medicine, and he was already tired. Tommy cuddled him, and by the second hand he was knocked out. It was so much better. We are both learning together, and it is definitely an adventure.

Both hands are looking so much better, both of which are turning normal skin color, from purple and bright pink. Slowly he is healing. The burn on his stomach was minimal, but is almost completely healed. And the graft site on his thigh, is also almost healed.

We go to the doctor tomorrow 1 1/2 hours away, it should be an event in itself. Then we proceed to lots of occupational therapy appointment, and I am sure there will be more appointments with the trauma (burn) doctors as well.

It sometimes feels like he will never be healed and we will be doing this forever, although I know it will all be over soon enough. This is only a long temporary thing. It still has not ruined my little guys happiness, he is still a very happy baby. Yeah sure he has grumpy moments, but he is entitled to those rights.

I will look forward to his first birthday, and hope that he will be able to rip open his presents. And then a week later rip open more for Christmas.

Today my precious angel turned 10 months! 1 more till 11, and 2 more until he is a year!
