Rick & Brayton got home from the dilation on Monday. It went really well! They took the tube out of Brayton's nose. We are all so happy about that one. Also, the esophagus was still the same size as last weeks (also good news!) so it was a 36. They had told us he wouldn't need surgery next week, just a swallow study, but we got a call yesterday switching it back to surgery. The surgeon said he didn't feel comfortable missing a week, he was afraid it would ruin things. Bummer, but at least we're getting closer to the end of these weekly dilations. I tell myself that every single time we are finished with one, or heading to another. Just a little longer.
We are busy planning Destiny's 7th birthday party which is next weekend, and my sister, who is here visiting, will be turning 16 on the 15th, so I am trying to do something for her as well. Money is tight due to the trips, I honestly don't know how we're getting to San Fran this weekend, but somehow, it always works out!
My husband is sick right now. Wasn't feeling well yesterday and took a half day for work. I woke up to him vomiting at 5am, and he was very hot, so I took him to the E.R. It's not the flu, something viral. Hopefully it passes quickly, and he doesn't share it with any of the kiddos.
Well, I'm off to try to get things done!
