And… the mouth sores are back. Owen woke up this morning and was talking with his jaw clenched and only moving his lips and I knew. I had him hold some honey in his mouth (a recommendation from a good friend who has been though this before) and it seemed to help. I looked in there and there are a bunch on the sides of his cheeks. I called the hospital just to let them know he has them and to make sure we were doing the right thing, and everything is fine. We went and picked up a prescription for pain medicine tonight in case the pain gets worse. He is eating and drinking, so that is definitely a good sign. Let’s hope that we can keep the pain management under control and that he doesn’t get a fever. These mouth sores are what landed him in the hospital for 4 days last time we were in this phase. I feel like we have a better grasp on how to maintain it this time.
The rest of the day was good. Lots of fun playing indoors with all of this rain outside.

Awww…that sucks! I hope he is feeling better soon. Hugs!
Love that painted face. Still can’t get over that he is such a brave little boy. We continue to pray for them. Love, Joanne & Barry
