Last week James had surgery at Children’s Hospital in Boston. He injured his hand six years ago (I’ve talked about it here and here) and needed some repair work done. I know plenty of grown adults who act like babies when they’re patients. It was impressive to see my baby act so brave.

James had a little postoperative nausea and pain, but it’s been almost a week since the surgery and he’s doing really well. He’ll be in the cast until September 12th. Personally I’d be going bonkers if I was without my right hand for three weeks. He's been adapting and not slowing down at all!
I am glad the surgery went so well. I am so impressed by how brave he is.
