On Tuesday, December 13, we had a
crazy day! Thank goodness I had my mom along to help out. Caden had
a follow-up appointment at the Shriner's hospital in Sacramento where
they monitor his congenital scoliosis. His appointment was at 9:15.
This normally wouldn't be a problem at all, but we also had a 1:30 pm
appointment for him at UC San Francisco. I'll get into that more in
the next post.
So needless to say things were going to
be very tight on timing and everything needed to go smoothly in order
to have enough time to drive to San Francisco and make it to the next
appointment as well as be able to feed Caden in between...
We were very happy because everything
at Shriner's went very well. He got his x-rays taken right away and
taken into the exam room to see the doctor quickly also. We ended up
having to wait for awhile there because he was still in surgery. But
when he came in, it was all good news. He compared Caden's x-rays
from a year ago to the ones taken that day and he was pleased. He
believes Caden's scoliosis is a “non-progressive” kind and that
means no surgery! He does want him to continue to be monitored over
time to make sure. But for now, he gets an “all-clear” report!
:) And, luckily for us, there is a Shriner's in Spokane where we go
for the rest of Caden's specialty doctors. So it works out great!
Getting his x-rays taken - he did such a great job holding still!
