Our night nurse was sick last night with fever, so she had to stay away from Brendan and the rest of us so Bill and I were up all night half and half like we usually do Saturdays. We are trying to get past all this yuck, we can’t have the cycle start again. Trevor finally seems healthy, my cough is so close to being gone. Other than being tired from being awake so early, Bill is doing OK too.
\nIt was doctor’s appointment day. Getting the stuff together for a big trip to the hospital is a lot of work, but the boys both did a great job. By this afternoon, Brendan seemed to be feeling a bit better and tonight he is showing big signs of improvement.
\nThe doctor was so thrilled to see Brendan and thought he was doing great. Brendan is up to 22lbs, 2.5oz! He just might be passing Trevor up!! She did believe he may have a minor respiratory infection and prescribed a long term, low dose antibiotic to help him fight it off for the next six weeks.
\nThe other big news is that she ordered Brendan a Passy Muir valve. We won’t go in to too much detail yet, but it is a special one way valve that will allow Brendan to make sounds when he is sprinting. When that comes in, we will post all kinds of info! <\/p>\n
Brendan casually waiting in the lobby for his appointment. He stopped and picked up his Beads of Courage update beads, we have to update his string. Brendan read clearly that he was just a VISITOR and that he was not staying at the hospital! He behaved so well for his checkup. Nom nom! Just getting checked out. Brendan takes up the whole double whale stroller, Trevor had to come in his own ride! Brendan spent the whole time pulling off his socks. Trevor says, “Here, pull mine too!”
