Well, today was the big day for Nick. He got his wisdom teeth out this morning. He was so funny on the way home saying how he felt good and normal, but he did not know that his speech was slurred and that he weaved when he walked. He would kind of look around and wave his arms to see how it felt. I think he knew he was just a little "high." He was
texting his friends and saying he loves his "communication." He propped his ice packs (frozen peas) with pillows and settled back to
recoup.
Pretty soon he was out. He slept really well for a couple of hours and then woke up for another chocolate shake. I had to wake him a couple of times to check his gauze to make sure he is not bleeding too much. He can only have cold, soft foods today. And no drinking with a straw for 5 days. So it's ice cream time around here. He is a good patient, and is now playing Rock Band. He is a little more coherent now. I just love this kid!
