doctors

Week before last, Ricky visited the new pediatrician for the first time. She is great! She knows a bit about CF and is willing to learn more. So, yay.

This past week, Ricky was tripped (someone stepped on his shoelaces) in PE and fell on his knee and had his left thumb bend back. Took him back to the pediatrician's office and saw one of her partners; an x-ray confirmed that the thumb and small bones around it were not broken... But they were pretty sure that the thumb was sprained. So he wore an ace bandage for 5 days to immobilize it.

Ricky was supposed to go to the neurologist tomorrow, but I got a call today (yes Sunday) and found out that this doc doesn't take Healthy Families, darn it... so we had to cancel it. He'll have to see a neuro doc at Stanford where most of his other docs are. But it will take some time. Sigh. Good old insurance...

That's it for now. :)
