Edison likes his new SIZE 24 MONTHS pajamas!!! He couldn't help but give himself a little kiss :)
He is feeling better but still dealing with this cold (and it does seem to be a cold as it's struck his "dada" as well). We went to the doctor yesterday and luckily he's not very wheezy, just junky, so we're okay at home. These colds just hit him a lot harder than other kids because his lungs aren't in the best shape anyway.
Now for the eyes. We went to CHOP today to see the ophthalmologist that specializes in ptosis (the droopy eye lid I mentioned last week). And he confirmed that he does have ptosis, definitely on the right and mildly on the left. They put a special drop in his eye that if the eye responds it is a good indicator that he would be okay with the more minor surgery (on the inside of the lid rather than the outside) and his eyes did respond. So that's good news. Before doing the surgery they want to rule out any neurological causes so Edison will have some blood work done and see the neuro-ophthalmologist the first of June. It makes me mad, mad, mad, MAD that he has something else to deal with, but we are encouraged that it appears to be minor and can be done in conjunction with the urological surgery that he has to have. We're still not sure when this will happen.

I too am MAD, MAD that he has to go over yet another bothersome bump. At the same time, I'm GLAD, GLAD that he has access to such advanced treatments. Someday...
I'm glad we're on another page now. I couldn't stand to look at his little flushed face again. I like his smooching himself much better - and I like the pj's much better than the outfit of a few frames back! :-)
