We had a doctor’s appointment at the pulmonology clinic today at the main hospital. Brendan has to do one more month on the ventilator while sleeping at night and then he has to go through the official overnight sleep study before they will take it away again. We were bummed about that but otherwise the visit was good. The doctor was thrilled to see Brendan doing so well and doesn’t think this will be too much of a setback to his original goals.
We hit horrible traffic on the way to the hospital and in the stop and go nonsense on the freeway, Brendan got car sick and threw up quite a bit. He has not been having any problems with throwing up at home, but the accelerating and braking over and over must have been too much. He has always had a tendency to throw up in the car, I sure hope he grows out of this too! Trevor did a great job during the whole appointment and car trip, he is such a good boy for these things.
He didn’t want to wake up this morning!
We played outside as much as possible.
The boys discovered that the fort is riddled with little holes that they can peek through and pass things through.
“This is a ‘No Mommies Allowed’ fort!!”
They passed bubble wands back and forth through the wall
Coming home from the doctor, we were going to be real late with dinner so we decided to get a couple of Wendy’s cheesy cheddar burgers. I got Trevor his own.
He did NOT like it, even if I cut it up for him. We try to cook real food at home every night and I have made a point to feed Trevor the most nutritious diet I can. That he doesn’t like fast food is a good thing.
While I cleaned up the kitchen and prepped for the next day, the boys watched Bill change out the ceiling fan in the “dining” area. We used the really nice fan that we took down from the patio and replaced this cheezoid glossy black free hand-me-down fan that was in there.
I put water on their trays and let them play. Splashing and watching Bill climb a ladder kept them entertained for a while!
Dirty hands! Ewwww!
Bill had the day off of work and got a lot done. We have appointments to interview two new nurses next week. I can’t believe May is almost gone!!
