This is William after he recovered from the anesthesia of his surgery. He has a sippy cup full of ice water, an apple juice box, a hamburger, and a chicken wrap. He just alternates between these four and falling asleep. As I drove home I would check up on him every 30 seconds or so (probably should have found someone to drive for me) but the poor guy was just all over the place. He would literally go from drinking his water, to his juice and then back again without stopping for more than a breath. Then a bit of the hamburger and more drinking. I had grabbed a chicken wrap to help with my hunger. I did not get more than a bite before he sequestered that from me and added it to his feast. What causes a guy to be so hungry? Well, this was about 2:30 in the afternoon. He was not able to eat before surgery so he had not eaten since the night before. It took him almost 2 hours to come out of the anesthesia and even then he kept falling asleep all afternoon.
About two weeks ago he had a surgery was for a hydroseal. It is basically a pocket of water that is formed in his scrotum when it leaks out from his abdominal cavity. It is along the same lines as a hernia. He has had it for a year or so and we have watched it to see if it would go away, get worse, etc. We decided we have not paid enough our our deductible yet this year, so we decided he needed it.
