Today Stanton had his MRI. He was not happy to be at the hospital and panicked a bit on the way in, but once we settled in the waiting area, he calmed down and played. The staff was great and took his history of vomiting and aspirating all into consideration. They really did go out of their way to keep Stanton happy and comfortable. I was able to go into the MRI room and put him on the table while the anesthesiologist put a "space rocket" mask on him. He was out within 10 seconds, then I had to leave and wait. The procedure took about 30 minutes and we met a screaming Stanton in the recovery room. He stopped crying as soon as I picked him up and rocked him - so sweet that even that drugged, he knew his Mama. We stayed in the recovery area for about an hour and then made the trip back home. Stanton stayed pretty grouchy until around 4:30 when he finally decided to drink some his formula. (He hadn't had anything since 2:00 am). He's been happily playing since then!
We won't have any results until the end of the week - and that's really when our doctor will receive the results. As soon as I hear something I'll let you know. Thank you friends for your sweet words of encouragement today!
