It is Thursday and we are almost done with the tests. Tuesday’s platelets went well as usual. Wednesday was the VCUG without sedation. Which allowed him to eat and drink his formula as usual. He did really well even with the part where they inserted a small feeding tube into his peepee, pumped some dye into his bladder and we got to watch as he peed out the tube and the dye.  He did it all in record time. Some kids take a long time to figure out the discomfort will go away once you start to urinate, Hayden just went for it and peed!

Today was the ultrasound which measured the kidney sizes and they recorded their function. We will get results next week from the Urologist.

Friday will be the hardest day for him since he is not allowed to eat, only drink clear liquids most of the day. Rick will bring him to this one and I can come if he gets too cranky. The day treatment nurses have a playmat set up for him this week so we don’t chance him falling off the bed since he is soo mobile now!

His first tooth is coming in on the bottom, you can just feel and see the sharp little tooth piercing through the gums! FINALLY
