Today we had an appointment with Dr. Richards (the urologist.) When Chase was born we put off a certain, ahem, "elective surgery" so that minor infection did not get in the way of his heart surgery. The original plan was do "revisit this issue" when Chase was 6 months old, they don't like to put babies under anesthesia unless they have to. And since he would be older, that would be required (who's going to argue with that?) Well since he's going under because of the tenotomy anyways next week we were hoping to knock it all out (lol) at one time.
Dr Richards checked Chase out today & he said we're good to go. It's a relief to me because it means one less time going under & a relief to Chase's dad bc, well, who wants to even think of their son remembering that experience? Lol ;-) Ok- I probably shouldn't laugh.
Chase has been a bit cranky this past week. We couldn't decide if it was his latest casting or something else. I've come to the conclusion that he's gulping his food down too fast- due to the growth spurt & therefor has a plain old stomach ache. But I tell you, when he's screaming his head off it feels like he's cut his arm off! Poor kid.
Tomorrow is his first overnighter with his dad! Wish everyone luck :-)
