Although it’s not always obvious in photographs, The Boy has quite a significant divergent squint. In layman’s terms…his eyes wander outwards and he can’t control it.
Today he had surgery to correct the squint, and despite having to wait 5 hours in the hospital before going down to theatre, he has been a little hero. He played nicely with the toys, watched a bit of a movie, and gave his daddy a run for his money at Angry Birds, all without complaining once about being hungry, thirsty or bored.
We finally got him home late afternoon, at which point he curled up on the sofa to snooze, wearing his sunglasses like a complete dude!
He is sore and tired but being very, very brave.
He’s now tucked up in bed and we’re hoping a good nights sleep will put him back on form tomorrow. We’ve got a quiet day at home together just in case.
Either way, I’m so relieved he came through this again with flying colours, and hopeful that the surgery is a success. Time will tell…fingers crossed.
Sooooo pleased it all went well. Hope the lil fella feels lot better very soon x
What a brave handsome kiddo! Hoping it goes super well for him.
Awe. Speedy recovery, Little Man. I hope himself ASAP

What a trooper! And so sweet. I am hopeful that the surgery will work very well!
Oh goodness, I’m glad he’s being a champ but I so hope this is the last one he has to do! I can only imagine how difficult they must be on all of you.
What a great thing to have behind you! I hope this is the last of it and the Boy enjoys his new world in 3D!
What a long day for you all. So glad he’s come through it all, and now he can heal. Have a lovely day together
It’s incredible how a small boy can take on so much without a fuss. They amaze me every time… It’s as if they want mommy and daddy to relax. I hope he’s doing well after the night.
Hope the op works well and he has a speedy recovery. Such a daunting thing for you all to go through
