Day One Down
The testing today went pretty smoothly. I'm anxious to get the results tomorrow. When we first arrived, Elijah's catheter bag started leaking, so I had to make an unexpected stop at the urologist's office to get it changed. Then, we went back down to the diagnostic center for the ultrasound.
Elijah was wonderful and laid very still on first his tummy, then his back as they took lots of pictures of his kidneys. The tech could not give me any information, of course, so I don't know what it means, but it looked like the right kidney measured a good bit larger than the left. She also kept measuring a bunch of smaller things, I asked what they were, she didn't really answer - just said there was fluid there and it needed to be measured. Then she left to "go talk with the doctor" and came back and said they wouldn't be running the other tests today; but she did say that Dr. O'Halleran would have the results before our first appointment tomorrow, which is at 8:30.
Thanks for your prayers and a special thank you to Cathie Reyes who has been helping more than you can imagine by having Grace and Micah on both Monday and today. You're the bestest, Cathie!
