Things have been busy around here with all the doctor appointments but so thankful that most of them are follow ups and check ups. So here are the reports:
Carter: The calcifications are smaller than they were in the last scan. No need for a follow up scan unless they start causing problems in his kidneys. It is not known if they will just keep getting smaller or move and decide to pass like a kidney stone (let's hope that is not the case) - so it's just a wait to see if they cause any problems.
Riley - Dr. Miller said to see him in one year. There is still that one spot he is still looking at but until Riley starts verbalizing "ouchee" and that area is bothering him or Dr. notices a change in the site - we are doing nothing. Riley does have little suture holes near his reinastimosis site that gets red every once in a while. They are like earring holes that get dirt in them. He can "fix" them if he is sedated and only takes a few minutes. So the next time he is sedated for a procedure, he is going to pop in and "fix" it. Lets hope it is not too painful.
They seem to be doing well overall and Carter has finally learned a new skill besides throwing toys. He decided to put them together and is now learning how to activate toys - yippee! He is so dangerous we he gets in a throwing mood which is not very controllable at this point so stopping him is very hard when "no" means nothing to him at this point. But we are so excited that he is learning how to do this! Riley is learning how to throw a ball and roll it back and forth with us. That is something new and he thinks it is fun.
I promise to post pics soon. Just trying to catch up on everything and have about 400 pics on my memory card that i need to download. Love the ability to see pics when taken but hate downloading them to the computer.
