Doctor Appointments

We had many doctor appointments lately.  His recovery from getting his tonsils and adenoids removed, and tubes in his ears was very long.  He required more oxygen, would not talk, and not put anything in his mouth for two weeks.  He now is back to his old self and in looking back, the surgery was a good decision!  The surgeon did find that his right vocal cord is still paralyzed and probably will be for the rest of his life.  We just need to keep an eye on him for aspiration. 

His neurosurgery appt. went well.  Dr. Carson felt his head and said he was doing really well.  His shunt will be in his brain for the rest of his life so we need to go for yearly appointments.  He was very impressed by his progress, and as long as he is making progress, Dr. Carson is happy (even if it's baby steps).

General surgery appointment went well.  Dr. A ordered a sonogram which we have next week to double check things.

We do need to see an endocrinologist because Wyatt's growth is only in the third percent.  They are worried he is not growing like he should, so we are going to check things out.  

He is getting the hiccups a lot lately, so I am going to call the Dr. to find out why... when you google the cause- the diagphram is irritated!!!  which is not a good thing!

Otherwise, Wyatt is progressing and always charting his own course!!!
