Doctor Visits

Tomorrow and Thursday we will be visiting the doctors. Wednesday Melody has Spina Bifida clinic. We will see the usual doctors (pediatrician, neurologist, urologist) as well as the Pediatric Orthopedic. As Melody is now 9 months old, they'll be doing a full assessment of her leg function and make physical therapy plans. We should also learn more about her hip and have lots of questions we hope to have answered as well.

Pray for this visit. I am anxious about it. I think I know Melody pretty well and her abilities as well as areas to work on. However, often the doctors reveal something new and it is sometimes hard to take. Kevin will be going with us to help process all we learn as well as ask questions.

Thursday is Hannah's follow up with the ENT. The redness is gone from her neck, so I know the infection is better. However, there is still a sizeable pocket of fluid where the cyst was. He had only discussed draining it if it grew, which it has not. She has 3 more days of antibiotics. So, we'll see what the doctor says then.

I'll try to post updates, but it may be a few days as life is busy until Friday.
