Recovery Day 9, 10, & 11
Day 9
Every day keeps getting better and better. We are finally seeing a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Remington is having regular bowel movements now for the most part. He is not having normal size ones, but I'm hoping that will come with time and they will get better when we change back to his regular food and are done with this soft stuff. I definitely do not like canned food!
The razor burns are 10 times better than what they were. Both sides are now completely scabbed over and the hair is growing back. You would have never known they were as bad as they were by the looks of them now.
Today he started sleeping by himself (thank goodness)! For the past week he would not sleep unless he was touching us or completely on top of or up against us. However, today he finally starting sleeping by himself and even took a little nap in his favorite spot... between the toilet and bathtub.
Day 10
Remington was not himself today. He refused to go to the bathroom all day! I was getting really upset with him because I knew he had to go. He just seemed to lay around all day and he didn't even want to move. I was getting pretty worried about him, but Dan said to just leave him be and let him do what he wants. Obviously, Remington know how he feels better than I do.
Day 11
Today we switched him back to normal food. We weren't suppose to do this until day 14, but the soft food was not producing any bowel movements at all for him. Later in the day Remington had a somewhat normal bowel movement. This made me happy since I'm constantly worrying about what it means when he doesn't have bowel movements like he use to and I don't want that stuff getting backed up in him.
It was an absolutely beautiful day outside this Memorial Day. Most of the time Remington and I would be enjoying it... but since he still needs to take it easy we spent most of the day inside. I did a massive cleaning on the house since it needed it desperately and worked on homework. O'well I got caught up on stuff :)

Razor burn right side.

This has been life for the past week...
This is life now... that's the old Remington right there!
He has also finally started to drink from his very own water bowl instead of one of our cups! YAY! Finally he is becoming self sufficient again!

Remington looks so much better, and I just love the photo of him sleeping with his head on daddy, but better than that the photo of him on his back and feet up, sweet Remi! Little by little he is getting there, so so happy.
