We are waiting at Emanual hospital for Petie to finish with his dental work in the operating room. Planning on 4 crowns and 8 sealants. He did really well this morning with the routine of getting on the hospital jammies, having his temperature taken, and getting the happy medicine to make it all a distant memory. I knew the Verced had kicked in when he let a very large male nurse (Kev said think Sloth from Goonies, no lie) pretend to tickle him and joke with him. Petie with no reservations was a pretty funny sight. He let the dentist and anesthesiologist take him away without a care in the world. Now where is the Verced for the parents?
Surveying the damage:
Chillin with Dad:
Update: We made it through the day. Petie ended up with 4 crowns and 4 fillings. He did just fine with most of the day. The car ride home was a little rough. He kept screaming "I want to go back to the hospital" over and over. What? Anyway, we are now finally home and he is fast asleep on Dad's chest. Now to begin the serious dental program of flossing and "serious" brushing! We vow not to return to the OR for dental work!
