Yesterday we took Rhett Man in for his MRI& MRV appt at Phoenix Children's Hospital. The night before I helped him pack his backpack with some books & toys just in case we had some down time in the waiting room and he wanted to bring his "shawk"(shark) book, even though it wouldn't fit in his backpack he told me "its ok, I can just cawwy(carry) it". He did such an awesome job and was so brave, we are so very proud of him!! The doctors and nurses there were amazing and made everything fun and exciting for him as well as very patient and informative to Clay and I, answering ALL of our questions (which trust me I had plenty)and making us feel very confident that he was in good hands & they would take good care of him. We got to go back with him as they gave him the anesthia to put him to sleep and then we were kicked out to the waiting room during the testing which took a good hour or so. I'm not going to lie, even though they warned us of what to expect while he was going to sleep, it was not easy for me to watch and definitely teared me up pretty good.
As soon as he started wakeing up from the anesthia they came and got us so we could be with him and let me tell ya he was not the happiest little guy, woke up a total little grump butt!! I informed the nurse that he is not much of a morning person and pretty much never enjoy's wakeing up!! Eventually we got him woke up, he got some goody's to bring home and we were on our way! As soon as we got in the truck he wanted the bandage from his IV off (not my kid or anything!!) and wasn't going to give up until I took it off, so I made sure it was done bleeding and pulled it off. When he saw the blood on the bandage he asked me "momma how come they had to make me bleed"! Hahaaa!!
They told us to expect the results from his pediatrician by Thursday afternoon. Being my normal anxious self, I actually called Dr. Gutman (his pediatrician) on the way home to let her know that he had the testing done and that she should be expecting the results by Thursday. She told me that its a good sign that they let us walk out of there and that she would let me know as soon as she hears anything.
