Tomorrow...

Tomorrow morning at 8am, Jeremy is getting his CT scan of his spine to the specs that Dr. Dan needs. We will be there bright and early @ 6am to check in. We weren't going to be able to get the echocardigram until March 31 and I didn't want to wait that long to get the CT scan done. I was given a list of what needed to be done in priority and the CT scan is first, this is going to determine if Jeremy's spine can tolerate the equipment needed for growing rods. Once Dr. Dan gets the CT scans, reviews them, the other X-rays we did and talks to his partners we will have a surgery plan, that means a date. I was upset that we couldn't do the echo at the same time, not wanting to put Jeremy back out but thought we will deal with that. My mom is coming in to watch Jeremy when we get home and I told her, unless there is a miracle he won't do his echo tomorrow. Dr. Klewier, J's Pediatric Cardiologist called me during lunch to say she was working on it, would talk to the head of that department. Shortly thereafter Dr. Cyrus office called me and I spoke to him and he is taking care of it and said we would get the echocardigram done tomorrow, he was calling them about 8am and telling them to head to radiology... Go Dr. Cyrus !!!

Pray for us in the morning, that we in fact get to do both test this would make it so much easier on Jeremy. Jeremy knows when I put him in the car that early in his PJ's we are going somewhere and it's probably to the hospital. This is only his second procedure at our new children's hospital and he still remembers when we did the miracle child video, he got to go up and play outside and in all the playrooms. Then trying to keep him entertained from 6a - 7:30am while we are doing the check in paperwork. Then when they give him the drink to relax him, he likes to ride around the floor in a wagon and he's happy...
