The Calm Before the Storm?




Today was a confusing, yet happy day. We had several follow up appointments at the IWK. We saw plastics, ENT, and ID to name but a few.

The doctors are very pleased with Ben's progress. His weight has FINALLY hit the 15 percentile!!! This is great news as this means we don't need weight checks every two days!!! Woohoo!!!

The next few months should ( I can emphasize the world SHOULD) be fairly quiet. Then we start the next rounds of surgery.

Ben will start with at least one scar revision with plastics. He will also need another follow up bronchoscopy. Then around his first birthday/Christmas we will have his palate repair and any remaining scar revision surgery as well as tubes in his ears.

We go back in 2-3 months to start the preop work up for the surgeries.

Fingers crossed the summer is quiet and we can enjoy some quiet time together.
