Transient somethin' somethin'

Transient Synovitis - we think that is what Ryan has. We being his doctor. . . and me, after he talked me down from my freak out. Ryan had sudden onset limping yesterday - noticeable, but coping well. Upon waking today the limping was significant and when I saw him attempt to walk it was utterly painful watch. Odd thing is, no known injury, no known cause. Hence the transient in the name. X-Ray's were negative for fracture. The limp did ease up a bit after some anti-inflammatory meds today and we wait and see. Typical course is 7-10 days of a limp, if it goes on longer than that, a more thorough work up will be done. I think he is done with me asking him if he has an ouchie because the response back is, "Nooooooo ouchie, Mommmmmmy!" Said in a tone that really does clue me in he is over my concern. He's not as active as his usual and certainly CRABBY. Everything else is status quo.

A rare nap today.

He was a bit on the testy side with the doctor and lacked cooperation with the X-Ray's.

Kathryn was doing her part in putting up a good fuss during the X-Ray as well.

I was in a total sweat by the time we were done.

This nap = needed. For both of us.
