no more "craisin"

For those of you who don't live near by, you haven't seen Jett's "little buddy". Over the Christmas break, it started off as a red freckle and then it went bizerk! We were told it was a pyrogenic granuloma....basically a rogue blood vessel. This thing would bleed EVERYWHERE! The dermatologist could have removed it in office, but because it was so close to his eye, he had to go into Arnold Palmer Pediatric hospital for out-patient surgery to get this thing off.

So Friday we went in and everything went PERFECT! They gave hime some liquid versed which basically put him to sleep so he never even knew he had an IV put in. When he woke up, he asked when they were going to take it off....not knowing it was already off. So if you ask him how it happened, he says, " drank some medicine and it just fell off" Thank heavens for modern medicine!

a little groggy and a lot happy!
