Owen and I went solo so Chris could have a work/home morning. We have been so fortunate to have attended many appointments all together. Team work comes in handy for many things, namely: bathroom breaks, holding down Owen's extremities for various procedures, and also one person actually listening to the MD during the visit as the other one entertains O.
Everything went well. We collectively agreed to leave the gastrostomy tube in for at least another 6 months. We don't use it, but IF there is another surgery or illness it is insurance. IF at 6 months there is really no sign of a surgery again then we can get it taken out.
It was a pretty minor thing today, the GI doc deflated the balloon, pulled out the old one, put in the new one, and inflated it. Owen played on the Child Life Ipad and I held his arms and legs down. It was a success.
