Owen's Story

Yucky day here… Owen woke up with a sore throat and hasn’t said too much of anything today.  He hasn’t eaten a thing all day, but continues to feel like he is going to be sick.

I called the nurse today, and they prescribed him a different anti-nausea medicine to see if it helps at all.  I just feel so bad for him.  He looks miserable, and seems depressed.  He doesn’t want to do anything.  We headed out to go pick up his prescription  and stopped by his school so one of his teachers could bring out his Valentine’s box.  We got home, but only got a few of them out before he wanted to stop.  He just didn’t want to do anything today.  Here is a pic I snapped while he was starting to pull stuff out of his box.

Pretty low key weekend here at the Evans house.  Friday, Owen just rested most of the day, then at dinner time he was ready for bed.   Then, from about 7 pm on he was vomiting every hour.  Even the anti-nausea medicine couldn’t help.  He was miserable, and it was a LONG night.  Saturday, he did a lot of sleeping.  His belly was a little more calm, but still not eating.  It was good that he was able to sleep though.

Today was a lot of resting too.  He was able to eat a little, but not much.  He would eat a little, then was sick… I feel so bad for him, and wish that there was something that I could do to make him feel better.  Sorry for the lack of pictures, but he hasn’t been up for being photographed.

Hopefully this week gets better.  My fear is still what is to come.  If he is doing this bad now, and it is only going to get worse.  We just need to have the strength to make it through this really rough time.

Happy Valentines Day!!

Well, the rest of last night didn’t go so well.  He was just really restless, couldn’t get comfortable at all and couldn’t sleep.  He was up till about 3 am when he finally took some Zofran (anti-nausea) and was able to fall asleep after that.

Today was kinda much of the same.  Just didn’t feel good.  He really didn’t eat anything today and has just been tired.  Days like these, he really likes his You Tube to cheer him up.  Here is the latest video craze that the boys love in our house:

It’s the Harlem Shake.  If you have never heard about it, go search on You Tube and there are hundreds of videos to keep you entertained for quite some time

We did try to do a Valentine’s Day photo shoot in our basement today, but trying to get them both in the picture wasn’t too successful.  Here is what I got…

I did manage to get a pretty cute one of just Owen.

Trying to get Logan to be still for longer than a second is pretty impossible.  I hope everyone had a great day!!
