Spencer's Stitches REMOVED

Spencer got his stitches out last week, thank the Lord!  It was quite eventful.  The surgery tape was stuck to him like a fourth layer of skin.  It was awful for him as they kept pulling slowly.  If you can imagine the biggest stickiest band-aid ever and then ripping it as slow as possible, this is what it looked like.  I won't mention the pinkish purple mark that was there for 2 days after all across his back, chest and up over his shoulder and neck.  Ugh!  And then let's not talk about the butterfly tape across the incision that was stuck and the long thread they pulled out.  Needless to say, I left the room to dry heave in the bathroom and let Scott deal with the rest.  I am so glad the worst of that is over with.  

He has been really cooperative about staying still and not getting into too much trouble.  He does continue to feel better and for that we are thankful.  We did go camping this past week and that was a little difficult.  He was very bored and you can only fish with so many biting gnats for one week, not too mention swimming with one arm!  He tried to be a trooper but we sure did have some grumpy moments with him.  He is a lot like his dad.  You never have to wonder what emotion they are feeling.  Gotta love them!
