Andy and Daddy before Surgery

Andy's mouth before surgery!

Andy yesterday getting into trouble...

Andy ate like a champ all day yesterday. Primarily ice cream and yogurt, but who can blame him? He will drink out of an open cup but throws a fit anytime he gets the bottle near him. Yesterday afternoon he started act like he was in pain, so we started giving him half doses of the perscription painkiller which worked well. Last night I gave him full doses and he only woke at 1am and 6am and slept till 7:30. I don't think I could ask for more than that!

This morning i gave him a half dose of the perscription med and he acted like same old Andy. Happy, crawling, and getting into everything he is not supposed to. (dog food and water, the toilet, his sister's toys...)

We feel so blessed that his recovery has been fairly easy on all of us. We were expecting such terrible times and just can't believe how happy he is when his pain is managed.
