Dr. Snyderman

Here he is, the doctor who will forever be in our hearts! T had his follow up yesterday in Pittsburgh. We did it all in one LONG day. All looks good. Dr. Snyderman said it couldn't be going any better. He was impressed at how far T could open his mouth which isn't far. (He has to cut most of his food like hamburgers) You should have seen the splints they pulled out of his nose. If they weren't covered in gross stuff I would have taken a picture. One of them was as long as my pinkie finger. He needs to go in every 4 weeks and have his nose cleaned out, but we can do that here. We need to get another scan done in 6 months. He can't go to gym because he is still so tired and trying to replenish his own red blood cells. Other than that it is done. Hopefully this will be the last post about T's nasal and sinus! We did get two more "explanation of Benefits" one for $3000.00 and one for $16.600.00!

Doesn't every child dream of getting out of gym class in some way or another while in middle school? I'm sorry your excuse had to be so darn pricey...

Rock on, Big T!!! Take your time replenishing those red blood cells.
