wisdom

April 29, 2023

Hayden cheered with her team feeling her whole jaw aching, The Oilers had just beat the Los Angeles Kings in the first series of the playoffs in game six.

Hayden had two goals and an assist in the game.

Hayden bonked her helmet to Ryan’s helmet as they beamed at each other.

Hayden celebrate on the ice for a while with her team before heading down to the locker room.

She sat down in her stall and she couldn’t ignore the throbbing pain in her jaw. Hayden’s been having twinges of pain here and there since the end of the season and she didn’t why but it wasn’t something that was affecting her play yet so she’s not saying anything to anyone yet.

Hayden checked her phone and frowned seeing the score of the Devils game. They lost in game six against the Ranger’s and would be going to game seven.

Hayden wanted to try and get out to see one of Luke’s and Jack’s playoff games but there’s no time for her to come out.

Luckily Jack and Luke got Ellen, Jim and Quinn with them in New Jersey.

Connor sat down in his stall and handed Hayden an ice pack and Advil. He’s noticed the way she’s been eating oddly and holding her jaw at times, he will respect her not wanting to say anything because he does the same but he won’t just sit and not help her.

Hayden looked at Connor surprised that he noticed.

“I won’t say anything unless it gets worse.” Connor whispered if he started noticing whatever was bothering was getting worst he would have go to the trainers and get checked.

Hayden nodded softly and quickly took the advil and sighed in relief as she help the ice pack to one of her jaw.

May 8, 2023

Hayden took a deep breath sitting in her stall after the game and taking a shower and just putting workout clothes back on. They had just lost in game three against the Vegas Knights.

The pain in her jaw has not gotten any better over the last week if anything it was significant worse. She noticed her jaw was starting to swell and it hurt to open her jaw.

Hayden was having a hard time eating anything and has been living on basically all protein shakes. She was always having a noticeably hard time talking and she has been barely calling or talking to anyone, mostly only answering her sibling calls before games and talking here and there at the rink.

“Alright you’re going to see the trainers now.” Connor told her as he just finished putting his suit back on.

Connor had no clue how no one noticed Hayden in so much pain but he couldn’t let her go any longer without seeing the trainers. She was starting to look like she was losing weight.

Hayden slowly nodded and stood up slowly wobbly her body weak after the game and Connor steadied her.

Connor gave Leon a nod as Leon looked over worried, Leon also noticed something off with Hayden and talked with Connor about it.

Connor walked Hayden to the trainers and helped her sit on the bed as the trainer came over.

Hayden grabbed Connor’s hand and gave him a look wanting him to stay.

Connor easily understood and nodded, he started talking for Hayden seeing she was having a hard time.

The trainer took x-rays of her jaw and she immediately saw the problem, “Her wisdoms teeth are impacted, all four of them are pressing against your teeth. Usually i would recommend you get surgery immediately for all them to be removed but with hockey i understand they won’t be possible.”

Hayden furrowed her brows gesturing to the notepad and the trainee handed it to her, “I had my wisdom teeth checked they weren’t growing in but they were straight and not growing but and not needed to be removed.” Hayden wrote it down and handed the notepad back.

“It can happen, some people’s can take years to finally start growing in.” The trainer explained.

The trainer gave Hayden a schedule of everyday IV’s as Hayden is barely getting enough nutrients, a numbing gel for the inside of her mouth to stop some pain and for her to container to take advil and use ice compressions.

May 14, 2023

Hayden hung her head low as the buzzer went off, they had just lost in game six against the Knights. They were officially eliminated from the playoffs.

Hayden honestly was barley staying standing up after the game, her wisdom teeth had got even worse and she could barley open her mouth without excruciating pain and she’s only been able to get any food by an IV. She hasn’t spoken in days.

She did tell her family that she would get wisdom teeth surgery once she was eliminated from the playoffs but didn’t say how bad it was.

Jack and Luke were eliminated from playoffs a few days ago and Jim, Ellen and Quinn were with them and they would all be in Edmonton tomorrow for Hayden’s surgery.

Hayden leaned on Ryan as she stumbled on the ice and he helped lead her off the ice.

Ryan has been staying over a lot the past few days as he was told about Hayden’s situation and didn’t want her to be alone even if she was barley sleeping because she was in so much pain.

Connor and Ryan both helped Hayden get out of her equipment and Leon came over and helped guide Hayden to the shower letting her take a quick shower and toss a simple t-shirt and athletics shorts on after.

Zach came over after Hayden finished showering and gently brushed out her hair and put it into a simple braid for a Hayden, “Feel better Blakey.” Zach whispered and Hayden softly squeezed his hand.

The whole team has noticed how everything just dimmed with Hayden not being able to talk much and being in so much pain.

Connor helped Hayden stand back up and Ryan wrapped an arm around Hayden helping her walk out.

She’s been using her very minimal energy all in the games and just completely exhausted after the games.

Ryan and Hayden walked by all the family waiting and Lauren and Celeste shared a sad smile hating how much Hayden is in pain.

May 15, 2023

Ryan picked up the Hughes as Hayden should not be driving. He also explained more about everything Hayden was dealing with the wisdom teeth as she only told them the basics not wanting to distract Jack and Luke.

Ellen walked in first immediately and hand e whole face softened seeing a miserable Hayden on her couch, “Oh bug.” Ellen cooed sitting down next to Hayden. Hayden hasn’t heard that nickname in years.

Hayden looked at her godmother with sad eyes. Her face was swollen but the rest of her look thin and she lost a lot of weight.

Ellen frowned feeling horrible Hayden has been this bad the entire time and they didn’t know.

Jim pressed a gentle kiss to Hayden’s forehead as Luke and Jack both gently cuddled on both sides of her and Quinn gave her a kiss on the forehead and sat on the floor in front of her.

Jack frowned seeing how much pain Hayden was in and stated she could barely do anything, he knew if she felt better she would be laughing at his missing tooth right now.

They had a few hours before Hayden surgery so Ellen and Quinn went to the grocery store to get a lot of soft foods for Hayden and some things for meals as they all would be staying in Edmonton for at least a week until Hayden could fly back to Michigan.

All of the Hughes went with Hayden to her surgery and Ellen and Jack went into the room with her.

Jack held Hayden’s hand as she was put under and then kissed her forehead and let her get rolled back to the surgery room.

Ellen had made Jack an appointment at the same dentist for during Hayden’s surgery and he got his implant made and would be able to pick up his fake tooth before they headed back to Michigan.

Hayden’s surgery took about two hours and she was in the post op room for almost an hour getting checked on as she came of anesthesia.

The doctor explained everything to Ellen and all of the prescriptions they would pick up as the rest of the family headed to Hayden’s room.

Hayden immediately looked a lot better, her eyes bright and not looking in pain and her face was just as swollen and her mouth had a lot of gauze.

“Jacky now we match.” Hayden’s voice slurred from all the numbness and pain medication.

Luke and Quinn immediately started laughing and Jim chuckled.

Jack laughed shaking his head fondly, now he knew his sister was feeling better as she teased him about his missing tooth.

Luke helped Hayden up and she leaned on her baby brother as he walked her out of the dentist.

Quinn had the bag of gauze for Hayden and Jack was walked in the other side of Hayden. The boys helped her get in to the car and Luke got in the back row letting Hayden sit in between Quinn and Jack.

Ellen and Jim came out and checked on Hayden before Jim started driving them back to Hayden’s home.

Hayden was mostly smiley and making jokes that just made everyone laugh.

Quinn helped Hayden out of the car and walked up to the front door and saw a giant bouquet of blue flowers on the front step.

Jack raised an eyebrow but picked up the bouquet for Hayden.

Quinn helped Hayden get her shoes off and brought her to the couch covering her with a blanket as Luke sat down next to her and handed her ice pack wrap for her face.

“Wanna see them Haydes?” Jack asked her softly and Hayden nodded and Jack brought the flowers down to her eye lever letting her look at the flowers and grabbed the card.

Hayden smiled a different smile that not a smile see often as she read the note making Jack, Quinn and Luke share a look.

Feel better Hayden. I’ll see you soon!

Love Matt <3

Hayden put the note back into the flowers, “There from Matt.” Hayden mumbled as she grabbed her stuff animal next to her, her penguin from Matt and cuddled with and rested her head on Luke’s shoulder.

“Matt.” Jack mouthed to Quinn with wide eyes making Quinn shake his head rolling his eyes fondly.

family skate

December 12, 2021

Hayden was tying up her skates for the family skate, she got to have Luke with her.

Luke got out of school only two days before but took a flight right to Edmonton wanting to spend some time with Hayden for his winter break until after Christmas and he gets to go to Hayden’s family skate.

Hayden fixed the beanie on Luke’s head, the same beanie that she also has on her head. Hayden has a pair of blue jeans and a grey thick sweater.

Hayden linked her arm with Luke as they stood up and heads to the ice, Hayden was so happy to be able to finally have someone with her at her family skate.

Anyone on the team could tell how happy Hayden was to have her little brother with her and her brother looked just as happy to be with her.

Connor, Lauren, Leon and Celeste skated to Hayden and Luke and they all gave kind smiles to Luke as they all have met him many times before.

They all talked together and of course Connor and Leon wanted to know how hockey was going for Luke.

They continued to talk talk together until one of the media team members asked for a photo of Hayden and Luke together.

Hayden leaned against Luke and they smiled at the camera.

“Aunty Hay!” A little voice called out.

Hayden smiled as she saw two year old Theo trying to skate to her, Zach was holding one his son’s hand.

“Hey Bug.” Hayden smiled happily as she bent down and opened up her arms letting Theo skate right into her arms and he snuggled happily into her warmth.

Luke had a small fond smile as he watched her with the little boy.

Hayden gave Zach a nod that she had his son and he nodded heading back to his wife.

Hayden stood back up with him in his arms, “Theo i want you to meet my baby brother Luke.”

Theo peaked his head up from where he was lying on her chest, “Your Aunty Hay’s brother?” Theo gasped looking at Luke in awe.

“I am.” Luke proudly replied he smiled gently at he little boy.

“Cool!” Theo beamed lookin excited.

“Aunty Hay huh?” Luke teased quietly, he knew how much Hayden liked the kids on her team but he didn’t know how close she was with them.

Hayden’s cheeks turned a little red, “I couldn’t stop them.” Hayden knew some of the WAG’s encouraged their kids to call her Aunty Hay.

Luke just smiled wrapping an arm around her shoulder as she held Theo in his arms, “It’s cute.” Luke was glad she was so close to her team.

Luke noticed the second Hayden passed Theo back to his parents, another kid wanted to be with Hayden. He totally understood because who doesn’t want to be with Hayden.

Luke thought it was very funny the entire time and was just glad he got to be here with Hayden. Even if Hayden’s attention kept getting stolen.
