bon mots de dillo
Jan. 14th, 2010 07:55 pmLately we hold hands and say what we're thankful for at dinner. Today Dillo said, "I'm thankful for talking about butts."
And now, we're making "ice krispie treats." He will not be corrected, even when I explained that RICE krispies were made from RICE.
Today he was sedated and had all his cavities filled. He clammed up when I tried to get him to drink the medicine, and I had to use a syringe and force him. But then they took him back strapped into a red wagon and apparently he was fine, very cooperative and mellow. They were pleased with the overall condition of his teeth and gums - he didn't bleed much, and the dentist seemed surprised by that, given the extent of his cavities. I think these were definitely nursing cavities. All 6 of his top front teeth had cavities along the gumline, in between, and in back, and none of his other teeth. On this plus side, this should means we're done with the matter, assuming we keep brushing as we have been.
When they brought him back out he was a little dopey but not particularly funny, like that kid on Youtube. He was a little uninhibited, in speech, I think, but didn't say anything amusing. He was fascinated with the numbness of his upper lip. By lunchtime he could feed himself rice and by 1pm or so he seemed fully back to normal.
