thought I had best update

we saw surgeon on the 30th Jack was so good with being examined etc, we had talked to him about dr having a look at his doodle etc and how it was ok...well jack turned around to em a few days before and said dr is going to look at my doodle then he is going to cut it and make it better hey mum, I had not mentioned anything about being cut or anything

anyway we spoke about the creams etc, he said nup was very tight and only going to get worse, from the looks he asked us about infection ect which as far as we know jack had had none... anyway he was all for booking us int he next monday but it didn't work for us so we booked him in for the 10th Dec

we were up bright and early to make the 2 hr trip to rocky and be at hops by 6am, jack was fine it was all a adventure for him I am sure not for me or jase, anyway the nurses were fantastic talkign to jack explaining to jack things etc, he got a brave bear (crochet bear) got dressed in his gown given a special hat, he headed off in this big bed with jase by his side at 8.20am with a loud bye mum a did get a little weepy but thankfully luke needed attending, then about 20min later I was taken down to waiting room to wait with jason, he said jack had been fine, and that Jase had had a cry after leaving him

so we waited and waited we had been told we couldn't go into recovery but they came and got jase mainly as they couldn't wake jack which we had a feeling was becuase we had woken him at 3am to leave and then he had been awake since 6am which is 3hrs earlier than normal anyway finalyy they came back to room, my poor baby look so small and sad, but then he saw me, and said wheres the remote he wanted the tv on.. so anyway we sat there watching tv he had to eat and go to toilet before we were allowed to leave he ate a huge meal, then it was time to go to toilet the poor love was so upset he was walkign funny as you can imagine, we tried once no go, then a hr later I said come on mate, took him to toilet sat him on it and we sang funny songs and then he managed to go

he had been given a GA and LA around scrotum and penis...so it was fairly numb still at that stage

we were allowed to leave hosp at 2.30pm headed home by the time we got home the LA had worn off and OMG the tears to get him to pee, then we had to put ointment on the wound the scrotum was black and blue the tip was red and raw.. not fun having to hold him down to put ointment on, we put a disp liner in his nappy in case it stuck adn kept upo the pain meds, when he woke on the 11th the liner had stuck so I put him in shower which was more crying etc, but liner fell off no dramas I let him go naked most of that day, he was very lathagic as well, then stoopidly I put some jocks on and we had a sleep and well they stuck so into oshower he sreamed I cried, but we got them off with no damage but it did bleed a little which freaked him out

anyway long story we had him on pain meds for 4 days and had to put the ointment on till tube ran out they said 2 times a day we did 3 .. and used non absorbant dressings inside his jocks and night nappy, as of the 20th we had finished the ointment his doodle looks fantastic no redness he is peeing in a straight line and has starting doing stand up pees the dissovable stiches are starting to fall out but all in all great outcome

now all I have to do is luke doesn't need one when he is 3
