Day -3 is not a good day.  Casey is feeling really bad.  His face is swollen, his head and jaw ache and he is nauseous.  He stops throwing up long enough to let out a few curse words.   Thank goodness this room is pretty sound proof!  They gave him morphine for the pain.  It would be nice if he could just sleep.  He is saying this really sucks.  Can't say as though I disagree.  He just said if I want to try this he will teach me how.  You know if I could, I would do it for him.  They are telling us this will last for about 24 hours.  Tomorrow they will try giving him this medicine at a slower pace along with benadryl, to hopefully avoid him getting this sick again.
Looking forward to a better day tomorrow.

  6. Thinking of you Casey, and you too Peggy I know as a mom it hurts so much to see one of your kids suffer. Bet he would rather be doing one of the long fly or Im sets from the old days than what he is going through!
