Friday was Eliot's big renal day, he had an RNC ( a nuclear medicine test) done and it looks like the ureter reimplantation surgery was a resounding success: no more reflux! That means that his crappy kidney will always be crappy, but no more damage is occurring, yeah! Dr. B reported that ELiot had "made his day" and he sure made ours. Unfortunately, Eliot was so scared and the water involved in the test to help him urinate ( a sensory no-no for Elli ) was terrible for him.
Following the RNC poor Eliot had to get an EKG done on his heart ( as per the geneticists orders) and he did very well considering the stress of the first test. He was able to watch Elmo on the TV they had in the room ( awesome ) and he tolerated it quite well. I was so proud of my boy, he is so tenacious and he has been through so much. Eliot's heart is fine, thank goodness and no, dear young and distracted doctor, he is NOT adopted:( Whatevah!
We are finally able to take Eliot off daily antibiotics and perhaps not worry all that much about the little dude.
Yep, I hear them waking up...
