Here we are:
LeBonheur Children's Hospital
Memphis, TN
901-287-7815 (direct line to room 7815, our room until Thursday am)
Got here about 8:30 this morning. Henry was a champ being hooked up to the EEG, even though he hates every single second of it. He will be having lots of blood work today, neurological evaluation and a bone scan for bone density later on. Yuck.
Our nurse when we checked in was Danyelle - our favorite nurse from our visit last year! She was expecting Henry and had written "Danyelle loves Henry" on his board! We are off to a great start!
GREAT NEWS ........'W' was here just a bit after we checked in and HENRY IS OFF THE DIET!!!! Though we were so fortunate that the diet worked in many ways for Henry, he has become increasingly more unhappy in the past month or so with his food situation ~ or lack of food! We have been slowly decreasing his fat ratio for the past several weeks, and as of today he is pretty much free to have what ever he likes! We had a grilled cheese sandwich, pretzels and a peanut butter cookie for lunch!!! Yay!!
It's about 12:45, and it's going to be a very long day...not much to do in a tiny room hooked up to 28 wires. We are headed to the play room now for a little break. Next update soon...
Happy days....
