SURGERY

Pal had his bone graft done 2 weeks ago at Primary Children's Hospital. He was so brave through the whole thing and so blessed that everything went so smoothly. His pain level always stayed under control and his spirits mostly stayed upbeat. There were a few moments when I could tell that he was crackin' jokes to cover up how he felt/looked. It's always hard to see your child go through an emotional roller coaster.
> But his jokes were truly funny!

1) After seeing himself on day 2 when the swelling was getting pretty crazy he said "I look half human and half "who!"

2) While playing a game, he kept using the hint button so we gave him a hard time about it to which he responded "What? I'm disabled here!"

3) While looking at some rather ugly fish he said, "Those fish have the same face as me. Too bad their's will stay that way!"

4) And his cousin helped out with this one: "I got in a fight with a Yeti and I won. You should see the way HE looks!"

I think the hardest part for him is yet to come. He has to stay in from recess/PE for 4-6 more weeks! How crazy insane is that to ask of an energetic kid?!
