Landon had surgery this past Monday to correct his trigger thumb. Trigger thumb just means his thumb never extended to full extension, it just sort of always hung out in a bent state. So the doctor just had to make a small incision to release the tendon to its full extension.
Landon's form of trigger thumb was also congenital meaning he was born that way and he inherited it from his daddy. Larry had to have the same procedure done on both his thumbs when he was little.
Anyways, Landon showed know fear going into surgery. He was chipper as could be and was so excited to put on his "Cool" hospital gown and "Chefs" hat as he called it. He was super stoked when the Doc came in and drew a happy face on his thumb.
Then came the silly juice they gave him to relax him before they took him in. He was hilarious. Mammy had 3 eyes and he was "imaginationing"(as he said) all kinds of silly things......
Then they wheeled him off with a huge silly grin on his face leaving his momma and daddy to sit in the waiting room to worry. But he came out just fine and we were headed home. Later on the day when I was tucking him in he tells me, " Mom, I miss surgery. It was so much fun". I had to laugh.....
It certainly wasn't fun for Larry and me!
