My little Tot-Monster B is teething like billy-o, and in the process gnawed right through his thumb and caused a very bad infection. He ran a high fever, we took him to the Emergency Room 2 days ago, where they gave him antibiotics.
Although they put bandages and a guard on his thumb, and we tried our best to keep his thumb out of his mouth, he managed to yank all the coverings off and continued chewing. I think I may have a budding difficult child-let on my hands, but that's another story for another time.
Anyway, today he's back in the Emergency Room with husband. The infection is now so deep that they have to cut his little thumb open and clean it out. I'm waiting for a work meeting to finish, and then I'm heading over there too.
Please spare a good thought or two for my little Tot-Monster and his sore sore thumb. That the doctors get all the infection out, and that my determined little boy will NOT chew through his stitches and make it even worse. (I might have to tie his little hand behind his back...I'll do what I have to)
