Today Ezra had a lot of visitors from many different Doctors. There was physical therapy, urology, neurology and ultra sound. Physical therapy showed Lauren some stretches that we can do with Ezras legs. They also talked about some of the things that he will be doing once he can be on his back. Urology stopped by to check his bladder, but we haven’t learned the results yet. They too have to wait until Ezra can be on his back to do more thorough tests. Neurology, said that he is doing good. There has been no change in the amount of fluid in his head, so still no shunt for another week.
Also Ezra has been doing well enough with his feeding that he gets to do on demand feeding. Before he had fix amounts that he had to take on a rigid schedule. Now he can eat how ever much he want, when he wants as long as he meets a daily total.
Lauren hasn’t been feeling too well, so we hope that she isn’t coming down with anything. If she gets sick she may not be able to spend time in the NICU.
