Riley Update

Very Tired with Daddy, before MRI

On the 2nd of February, Riley had his MRI,

we were admitted to Flinders Medical Centre in the morning and had a few hours wait until he was taken down for the procedure, I sat with him while they gave him the gas.

I tell you, that was the single most horrible experience of my life,

and leaving him lying there was even worse!

I was not allowed to be there when he woke up, which apparently is common,

but I thought it was ridiculous,

especially when they brought him back screaming and terrified because he didnt know anybody around him.

 I really think they should change the way they do things and allow parents into recovery.

Like he had not been through enough without the fear of being without his mummy!

He was very thirsty when he woke up and drank 2 full bottles of apple juice in about 10 minutes. He was very hungry aswell, as he had been fasting since 6am and he didnt come out of recovery until 2pm.

 He was happy to eat the biscuits the nurse gave him, then ate the snacks I had taken along aswell.

Big Smiles!

We were able to leave the hospital at about 4pm, and it took us over an hour to get home. Riley was very tired when we got home and Zane was pleased to see us after spending the day with his Nan.

We get results on the 30th of March and I will post them as soon as I get a free moment.
