In some ways, this recovery thing has taken a different turn.
During Simi's open heart surgery, the surgical team cut open Simi's breastbone to get to his heart. Now, he needs to give his bones time to mend. This means no falling down. Which means we need to keep him from running around so that he doesn't fall down.
Problem is, Simi has about 10x more energy than he did BEFORE the open heart surgery. Guess his body really and truly was working harder due to the defect. Anyway, today after nap time, Simi was running in circles in the living room, then jumping from the furniture onto the floor. Raj was home with him and had a heck of a time getting the kid calm (let's do a puzzle, Simi.).
These bones just can't mend fast enough!

Hello
It sounds like Simi's energy level went up something fierce after his surgery! Sometimes, even though I am thirteen, I run around sometimes and only once did I fall and injure myself badly. Is he still as hyper?
Love,
Ana
