Year 4 – Week 35 – Day 6

Brendan had a test in Nuclear Medicine today at the hospital. They are testing motility in his gut, all as part of the big picture to get him eating real food.
They filled his tummy with his formula mixed with a small amount of radioactive medicine, and then they watched it move through his system.

The problem is that it meant being trapped in this machine for an hour and twenty minutes.

Now we wait for results.

Bill and I are both tired. He is still fighting the cold. The boys are bursting with energy though, so we have to have exercise time. Today was the ninja hour. (Plus, we got a soft new area rug! Wooo!)
