Team Diego via Boston

Diego did not want to get out of bed this morning.  He used every tool in his toolbox to stay toasty in the bed.  He had a difficult walk to the hospital full of tears and fear.  By the time we arrived in the building he seemed to be pulling himself together.  

Right on time, the anesthesiologist team showed up at 8:30am.  They gave Diego the oral meds to help him relax, but to no surprise, it did not faze Diego.  He was determined to keep his eyes wide awake.  The team of doctors began pacing the floor and 20 minutes later showed up with scrubs for mom.

I went with Diego back into the operating room.  They placed the grape flavored gas mask over his face to start the inhalation meds.  Diego became agitated so the doctors had to softly constrain him for a brief moment.  Then, he was completely asleep.
