PBMT - Day 292

We arrived the out-patient clinic at QMH around 09:30 and have only waited an hour before we see our doctor! We were lucky that it's Dr Chiang who saw us today who went through everything in so much detail. First, he looked at Adrian's weight and height (12.6 kg & 89.5 cm tall) against the graph and told us Adrian's measurement only lies between the 25th & 50th percentile. At least he's in proportion though he looks smaller when compared to other kids his age. We also talked about vaccination schedule and he was so kind to actually call up the nurses and book Adrian to go for his first shot on the first anniversary of his tranplant (this coming Dec 10th). On the other hands, results for the last VMA/HVA was normal. However, because of the recent melamine contaminated milk scandal in Hong Kong, we mentioned to Dr that Adrian (& Mama) has been drinking those UHT milk for over a year. He wrote us a referral to the clinic for a thorough check up on Adrian and it's good that it's scheduled on Oct 10th which falls on a school holiday. Our next appointment will tentatively be on Nov 24th, which will hopefully after his next 6-months CT Scan to be scheduled in November.

Xinxin is also small size for her age. Actually she never grow 1cm in the last past ten months. Let's just hope they can grow faster later.
