Clay Aiken talks about his son's health scare...

I think this is the final Clay Aiken-related item of the week! I watched part 2 of his interview with Diane Sawyer on GMA this morning and how nice to see him looking so happy and unguarded. It's what I wish for everyone.

Anyway, Clay is getting tons of exposure from the GMA interview and the People magazine cover story. "Entertainment Tonight" did a excerpt and teased it with this commercial: "Clay Aiken, the gay dad!"

Oh, brother.

In People, Clay talks about a health scare son Parker had when the baby was just a month old and had to undergo emergency surgery for an intestinal condition that complicates digestion.

"He had been gassy for weeks and then he started throwing up," Clay said. "Jaymes [Foster, the baby's mother] and I were trying to be calm, rational parents, so we didn't call the doctors too much, but it just got to a point where he was vomiting everything. He was starting to get dehydrated."

Parker was diagnosed with pyloric stenosis, a condition that prompted doctors to decide he needed surgery the following day.

Clay had a series of questions for the doctors. "I don't like to nag people, but I asked every question I could think of, and I thought of some more and called them back. I wanted to know everything," he says. "I was like, wait a second, this is my responsibility, I need to take care of this child, and he can't ask questions for himself. It was a reality check, like this is the real deal."

How is Parker doing now?

"He's fine, healthy and doing well!"
