Andrew's ultrasound is finished and they will be analyzing the kidney pictures soon. I met with a few doctors from the pediatric nephrology (kidney) department. As of right now Andrew will be on a medication to regulate his blood pressure. Chris and I will also be trained in using a blood pressure cuff and a stethoscope. We will need to document Andrew's blood pressure twice daily. We are definitely learning a lot about medicine and medical procedures....much more than we ever wanted to know!
On a fun note....Andrew was able to play with Teddy the therapy dog today. Teddy is an 11 year old golden retriver who visits Mott patients on Tuesdays.
