Good News

Today has been a good day! We took the long trip to Seattle again. This time I took Jessica and Kyle. We started our day at 4 am and got off on the road at 5:30. We only had one appointment today and that was just an upper GI.
Keian HATED it!
First they started off by taking and picture (x-ray) of his stomache. Oh boy did her scream! He hated how close the machine was getting to him. Then the technitian gave him a toy with spinning lights. Keian started to laugh and I thought he might actually be ok. The doctors came in and then they proceeded to strap Keian in to a contraption that kept him perfectly still other than his arms. This contraption held his head in place and tilted him side to side. Keian not only didn't like the fact that it moved but every time he heard any of of the velcro being undone he'd scream louder. By the time the doctors and the technitians were ready to go, Keian was at a full out screaming in crying. Poor guy was so scared it took him a full half our to calm him down and he passed out from exahstion.
Well Keian passed with flying colors! His nissen is fine. He is not refluxing and getting anything up. He can get stuff up however if he coughs hard enough. We now need to keep Keian's airway clean which means no food when he gets a runny nose. Sunctioning out his nose on a daily basis if sick and giving him polmacort on a daily basis.
Well after the doctor the family went to the Children's museum in Seattle. Boy did Kyle and Jessica have fun. It was so much fun that neither of them wanted to leave and we had to promise to come back another time.
