It’s a day full of appointments & “surprises”!

1. The EIS lady was supposed to do a home visit (talking about Adrian attending JK this coming Sept) at 09:00 but no show. We waited for 30 mins and off we went to SickKids for more appointments. Later in the day we found out that she’s totally forgotten about our appointment and has now rescheduled it to Mar 8th at noon at a coffee shop near Mama’s workplace.

2. Adrian did really well in the hearing test this time! Even the audiologist found it hard to believe the test could be finished in 15 mins! The result reconfirms asymmetric hearing loss with auditory impairment starting from 2,000 Hz on his right ear and ~ 1,000 Hz on his left ear. We’ll meet with the ENT doctor on April 1st to go over results and the possibility of getting amplification.

3. Last Cardiac Echo (Sept 09) showed Adrian’s left heart chamber is slightly bigger than normal (may due to chemo side effects) and so Adrian had his 2nd follow up Cardiac Echo test this afternoon at 13:00. The test ran smoothly with Adrian behaved extraordinary well! He didn’t complain at all when he was asked to lie down and he cooperated with the technician – he’d turn whenever he was asked to turn etc. It’s the first time Mama could actually sit on the chair (without holding him still in bed) and relax a bit during his test.

Well, it's hard to believe how well Adrian behaved during the entire visit at SickKids. He is no longer the little boy we once knew…. :-)
