Day 3 was a longish kind of day. Broc had his MEG scan first after we enjoyed another breakfast at the cafeteria.
Once we got Broc settled after many minutes trying to find a movie that wouldn't scare him,they settled on March of the Penguins.
They were very proud of Broc as he is the youngest child to complete the MEG scan to date. We are very proud of him.
While he was doing his MEG scan I was doing some neuro psych testing.Some of it was fun and some just plain frustrating. I am not good with puzzles at all.
On our way out we hang out in the lobby for a while and the boys discovered the Voice radio Station sponsored by Ryan Seacrest. It was a blast.The boys were requesting songs, dancing, learning new dance moves and making lots of friends. I am sure they were vert glad to see us go. They both never stopped talking or dancing at all. Just jive bunnies with bundles of energy.
It was a nice break for Mark and I until he decided to join them. It was great daddy and boys time too.
Although we did a lot of testing we had wonderful quality family time.I loved every minute of it.
We also decided to venture out and eat diner at Bobbys Burger Palace. I loved my burger. The milkshakes were incredible.The food was gourmet so Mark was not to keen on it but it was fun. The boys entertained all the people sitting around us.
Broc was born with a broken heart.He is a strong little guy and has overcome many obstacles.He will still have to deal with heart surgeries and procedures in the future.Through all of this he is a great little buddy and loves his older brother Mark.Dealing with Broc's health issues has made us a very strong family.

Philly - SVIP visit - Day 2.
The second day we met our team at the hotel and we took a cab to CHOP (CHildrens Hospital of Philadelphia).
We had breakfast at the hospital cafeteria and then got ready for our testing day. The first day only Mark had testing as the MRI scanner was down. He had about an hour and a half of testing and then we were done for the day.
Because of our short day we decided to take the boys to the aquarium. What an amazing place. There were so many touch pools with stingrays,starfish and baby nurse sharks.
What an awesome day. It was hot with a slight breeze. We all had lots of family fun. It was great to walk on the river and see the sights.
