We Have Contact!!

I received a reply from our oncologist at Strong today! She seems willing to help us get scans done here in late July or early August. She did not respond to our specific request regarding anesthesia, perhaps we will have to deal with that on the day of the scans. I was a little disturbed that she asked me if Brady had scans done after his April surgery!!?! Uh...yes...he did...at Strong...and we met with YOU to discuss the results. See what I mean? Brady is like the invisible patient!!! Anyway, it seems as though we are moving in the right direction for the time being.

Brady and I went to PT today. When we got there he was not cooperative and did not want to interact with Linda very much. Perhaps the few weeks off of PT made him not very comfortable. Truthfully, he acted much like he has been at home. He is rather clingy, whiny, and moody. Other times he is his silly self. Normal toddler stuff, or is he trying to tell me something. I HATE wondering and worrying as I try and analyze his behavior. Scans couldn't come soon enough.

Taking the Bull by the Horns

UPDATE ON BLOG CONTEST: So it seems I won 2nd place out of the Top 10! I'm honored because many (if not all) of the moms featured have VERY intricate blogs that use advertisements, product endorsements, giveaways... I just have a beautiful boy and MANY faithful friends and family members willing to support my little blog! Hooray for us! I'm pretty sure Steps for Brady will be featured on the Momlogic site and I think I also may have won a blog makeover (again, clueless here, certainly I need a makeover more than my blog?) Anyway...thanks for your help! With love, Meg

Being the impatient parents that we are, Matt and I decided to pool our resources and get a scan date TODAY! Remember our two favorite nurses in the pediatric MRI/CT department? Well, Matt called them this morning, and by noon we had our scan date and time. We were both sick of sitting back and waiting!!! There were a few more hiccups in the insurance process, but I think we are on the right track. Brady's scans will be May 14th (next Thurs) at 12:30. He will have urine and blood tests done that morning at the clinic. Allie's 6 month check up is that same morning, so I'll be taking her, and Matt will take Brady. I'm expecting paperwork from the general surgeon soon to initiate getting a date for the Broviac surgery...hooray!

We are going with Grandma to see Thomas the Train tomorrow! We have a babysitter for Allie, so we will be one adult per triplet! I'm so excited to do something fun with my three amigos...pictures to follow!

They are announcing the winner of the blog contest at 10:30 tonight. I'll come back and share the results after that.
