Puke of Earl - Day 9

This morning at home started out great which should have been an omen for things to come. Nana got up early to cook Camden his favorite cheese grits and sausage. After that he had about 2 pieces of cinnamon toast with extra butter and sugar,yumm,yumm. Camden was now loaded down with added calories and energy and ready for whatever Ms. Tammy could throw at him, or so we thought.

Something seemed off from the moment Camden was loaded in the suit and began to work on his abs. He did good with the first set but then just didn't seem interested in his rewarded bouncy time. After his next set of abs he began screaming, moreso than his normal angry, I don't want to work, mode. Ms. Tammy felt like his hips were bothering him from the extra work yesterday and sent me home to get him some Motrin.

I gave Camden some much needed pain relief and then he happily worked on "Bert". It appeared as if Camden was back to normal until it started raining, from Camden's mouth that is. He couldn't seem to keep anything down and therapy was interrupted every few minutes for a water break and clean up. Camden finally started to have a better mood and seemed to get a kick out of us dodging his breakfast.

His tummy eventually got settled and he did some of his best walking yet in the monkey cage. I think the problem may have been that I gave him his nightime medicine last night on a full stomach and combine that with overworked abs and a delicious morning feast. Hopefully he will feel better after his nap and be ready for tomorrow's big day. He has a special day planned as his physical therapist from his day care in Jacksonville is stopping by to watch him in action and give him some more spoiled time.

My poor baby! Sorry he had such a rough day. But that's very cool about his walking in the harness.

Mommy is packing her bags and is just 21 hours away from being with the loves of her life!!

So sorry Camden was sick on Thursday. Hope he has a better day for Ms. Lisa, and I hope Ms. Lisa sees improvement, and gets fresh ideas for working with our little fellow in the future. Love you all --- Grandma Mona (We'll be down in Lakeland this weekend helping Bill and Becka move.)
