Day 42


We are going to pray for his skin around his button again. It started doing better last week but this week his skin turned really red and irritated around the button. Then yesterday it started bleeding. We are going to see Dr. Habersang first thing in the morning, so he can check his button and also look at his blood work results from yesterday.

Seton was such a big boy while they were attempting to draw his blood. He is so hard, even with the extra water we gave him. It still was not enough. They stuck him 4 times trying to find a good vein. They got 2 veins but did not get enough blood from either one of them to complete all the blood tests. They did however get enough to test his Phenobarbital levels, which Dr. H will look at tomorrow. We will have to go back in a few weeks to get the allergy testing done. Seton only cried one time when they stuck his foot and only fidgeted a few times trying to get his arm back.  Here are a few pictures of my BIG boy, trying to prove it anyway.

Mom, what are they doing to me?

 I will post pictures of his battle wounds tomorrow.
