Our day at the Hospital....

Our day started at 9:45 at MSTI, we checked into MSTI, Colby get his blood pressure, temperature, hight and weight taken. He then goes to the lab were they draw his blood and put in an IV. Colby always gets scared when he starts walking down the hallway to the lab. Today he was very brave and told the nurses about his pillow case with mator and mcqueen on it. By the time the IV was in we were already behind the hospital Medical Imaging was looking for us.
We then went over to Medical Imaging, there we went straight in to have a chest X-Ray, Colby really likes these, there are no needles involved.



We were then put in a room, Colby had to drink a contrast drink before his CT scan. He was a little cranky by then. (Hungry and tired) He was not a fan of the drink and didn't want to drink it. Colby finally finished the drink and the doctor was called in to sedate him.


All those cords, medicine, and nurses for a 5 minute scan. He was given the scan and put back in his room, while he was still asleep he had his ultra sound. I prefer that, he just doesn't like all those doctors and nurses looking at his business.



Colby recovered very well from the Sedation. He woke up after 40 minutes of getting the medication. He woke up groggy and just a little angry. He was more angry that his bandad was loony toons rather than Dora the Explorer, He did ask the nurse if she would go and buy him some.

All in all Colby's scans all came back normal! We still need to hear back on the blood work, but I am hopeful those will be normal too. We finally got to leave the hospital at 2pm I am glad it wasn't as long as I thought it would be.

Thanks to everyone for reading and for all of your prayers.
