Theo didn't feel very well the last two weeks of December. It started off with the stomach flu and then a sinus infection and cold. He wasn't super sick, but he just wasn't his usual happy self. We hardly saw any smiles and there were no silly head shakes. He didn't even want to play with his toys for long. Finally on Tuesday, December 30th he started acting like normal. That night, he started shaking his head around, eating solid foods again, drinking juice, doing his spins on the floor, smiling, and laughing. We were so excited to see all of these things that we hadn't seen much of the past two weeks.
He is still hanging onto his cold and cough, but he is so much better. Please pray that Theo can get rid of this stuff for good.
Yesterday we had our biannual appointment at Children's Mercy in the Spinal Defects Clinic. It was a long day as we were there for four hours. Theo was very happy at first, and he was really showing off his skills. But as the morning wore on, he wasn't so happy anymore. He got bored with showing off I guess. Everyone was very excited with how well Theo is doing! The only not-so-good news we received was that we may have to do some sort of procedure to expand Theo's rib cage on his left side in the future because it may not develop properly since he only has a lung on the right side. So we are being referred on to a different orthopedic surgeon at Children's who has experience with this. We are thankful to have such a wonderful hospital only 2 hours away.
