Thanks for the comments Joyce and folks. Joyce, is it the Chemo that I've heard puts a metalic taste in the mouth, especially when one uses metal eating utensils?
On the iced tea, I just meant that most little kids don't like it without sugar. I don't like it with sugar either, maybe a little lemon please. While he's on the Accutane for two weeks, I think it upsets his stomach some. They've got him on some meds for that. The Accutane also makes his skin very thin and tender so who knows what's going on inside? He hardly ever sleeps through the night so are giving him something to help him relax I guess.
But watching him around playing etc, he seems pretty normal. But his cheeks are very red, lips are chapped all the time and has these strong personality swings. Not just the typical stubborn two year old. He will swing from being happy and laughing to crying and doesn't seem to know what is wrong. HE's awfully stubborn but that can be a positive depending on IF he learns to use it that way. He plays well with others (brother, sister, friends and GRANDPA LOL) but isn't much into sharing. Again, yah, a lot of this may be the typical kid stuff. Hard to know.
I had to turn my head yesterday so he wouldn't see me laugh. He was by the pool and reaching way down into the water. His mother told him to back up and not lean so far down. He didn't. Then his father asked him what did his mother just tell him. HE stands up and says, "She said to not lean down so far." So what does he do but immediately kneel back down and start reaching down into the water just like before? His father yells, "BRAEDEN!!" Braeden stands up looking nervous. His father says, "Do I have to give you a spanking?" Braeden swings both hands back immediately covering his little buns and says, "No, daddy!!" So he knows what is expected, just has to decide who has the upper hand at the moment.
