(HBOT 15) - Bitter Sweet Day

When I picked Jonathan up, he was playing by himself. He was talking to himself. He saw me and came running towards me. We said bye to everyone and went home. I bathed him quickly and ran out the door as we were going to be late. He played with my phone the entire trip

HBOT Day 15

He did well in the chamber. I was tired and fell asleep a couple of times, but Jonathan didn't let me sleep. Kept telling me "wake up Mommy". When we finished, we drove home quickly as we were going to pick up with Daddy and Vanessa and head over to Joe's Crab restaurant to meet up with some friends for dinner. Jonathan doesn't like going there much. We don't know why. He wasn't thrilled, but he was okay and said that he wanted to eat pizza.

When we arrived, he didn't say hi to anyone and sat next to Daddy, asked Daddy for his phone and sat silently playing with the phone. Vanessa joined the other kids in the playground. Nothing we said to Jonathan convinced him to go to the playground. When his pizza arrived, he behaved like never. He was very very VERY picky about the tomato sauce in the pizza and that the cheese was not perfectly aligned on top of the pizza after cutting it. After a good 10 minutes of patience, I lost it. I screamed at him that I was going to take the pizza away unless he stopped being picky. He stared at me and started crying and I walked away to clear my head. When I returned, Daddy took over and he finished eating. He looked at me with teary eyes and I opened my arms. He came to me and sat on my laps and hugged me and I rocked him for a little bit until he felt better. After about 1 hour, he was in a better mood and joined the other kids to eat some cake.

It was a very hard day. But it is not his fault. It was a long day, he was tired, hungry and cranky.
