Brayton had a dilation on Tuesday, and it all went well. They got him dilated up to a 38. The surgery seemed to go quickly this time, and even though he was cranky at first, he seemed to snap out of faster than usual also. I hate that he goes through all of this, but I sure do admire that kiddo for his strength. They said in the future, we will begin bi-weekly dilations, then monthly, and then see how it goes. I can't wait to get started with that. The surgery before last, they removed the tube from Brayton's nose, so it seems like things are taking steps in the right direction. He has been eating purees, and things like oatmeal. He's enjoying that for sure.
We had his 2 year check up yesterday, and he is doing really well. She was surprised at how he caught up so well, the only thing he is behind on is speech. He is talking but only single words. We are going to be referred to speech therapy, and for a hearing evaluation (although his hearing has proved to be fine in the past.) He also needs to get a testicular ultrasound to determine if the left one has come down or if he still needs surgery with urology. Might as well get that taken care of while we're going down there weekly.
