Some great news!!!

We have great news to share about Little Mark.He had his annual leg x-rays and his legs have corrected themselves.We are so happy that we got early intervention for him.He does not need to see Dr H anymore. I am so happy one less appointment I have to make and go to.He does however still have to wear his SMO's (ankle braces) for stability and balance.He gets his new pair next Wed.We will take a pic of them and put them on here for all to see.They will have monster trucks designs on them.He is so excited.

On the other hand.Broc had his usual 6 month bone age x-rays for them to plot on the graph.He will keep having these x-rays every 6 months so that they can see where his leg length will be and if he needs any intervention.
He is seeing the ped. ortho dr on Friday and we will see if he has anything different to add.

Here is a picture of the boys playing at the Drs office.

We have a date.

MOTTS called today to schedule Broc for his next procedure.He will be seeing Dr S on the 19th May for a clinical examine and then on the 20th May Broc will be having his diagnostic arteriogram.Here is a link to what the procedure entails.

He will be asleep for the whole thing.That is all he is concerned with.He will also be spending the night for observation.So we will be spending 3 days in Michigan.Hopefully we will be heading home on Sat once he is discharged. On Sat we will know if he will be having the by pass surgery in the late Summer or in a few years time.

It will be a new experience for all of us as we have never been to this hospital before.It is in Ann Arbor,Michigan.It is a children's hospital called MOTTS.They are a bloodless hospital which would make things a little easier for us.

Tomorrow Broc sees Dr H (the ortho dr) and then on Friday he sees Dr K(lung dr) as well as Dr K(ped.ortho dr).This week will be a very busy week for us.After Friday we will know what the next step is with Brocs leg bones too.

Both the boys health is still doing really well.Now we just need to keep it that way for Broc.
I will post with more updates later this week.
