We visited the school again today to pick up Adrian's belongings, books and the photo album that the school has prepared for us on Adrian's very first school year. While we thought it would be the very LAST visit to the school, the principal told us that the school will still be open "unofficially" in July. She encouraged us to let Adrian go for school again until July 20th - according to the plan, it was supposed to be the last school day before the summer holiday. The "class" will be run a little different though there's still activities for the kids to do. We all think it's not a bad idea and decided to let Adrian "resumes" school starting July 2nd.

Mama took up the rain/heat challenge and brought Adrian to visit the HK Disneyland first time this summer! We arrived there just before 11am to catch the "Stitch's Summer Dance Bash". Despite of the rain in the middle of the dance bash, Adrian was all excited that he danced together with the performers. Out of the many visits we've had at Disney, it had the least people that day. We didn't have to wait to get in "Small World" & we even played twice on the "Buzz Lightyear" game. It's the first time we sat on the first row in the Golden Mickey Show and we managed to tape part of the show (using our cell phone) for Adrian to enjoy it after. It was great fun spending the AM & PM at Disney and we left there "half" soaking wet after watching the Mickey's Waterworks Parade. We'll definitely go again in July.

Today the government announced Kindergartens and Primary Schools will remain closed and will re-open after summer holidays. Though it was somehow expected but we feel sad that Adrian's first school year has to end this way. Adrian has been really good during the 2 weeks that he's home and we had a great time bonding with one another. He's more skillful in playing with his blocks, learning more on colors that not only can he recognize but finally say it correctly with each color. Apart from the school suspension, we made a trip to QMH this afternoon for a blood test. The blood collected will be used to test & see if the vaccination (esp. Hep B doses) are effective.

It's been a week since Adrian is off school. Adrian mentions about "going to school" at times and it's hard to explain why he can't go to school now. We made a trip to the school this afternoon to collect the handbook and some worksheets for Adrian to do during this 2 weeks while he's home.

Had a hard time collecting Adrian's urine first thing in the morning as he's not in the mood because he got waken up by us. Arrived QMH before 10am and we got assigned to see Dr Chan again this time. We went over the result of the MIBG Scan and Adrian's last VMA/HVA readings. Things are looking good and Mama suggested the next appointment date on July 27th, the
day before our departure.

Mama went to HKSH one last time to pick up the MIBG Scan Report this morning. We are happy to know the Scan result is CLEAR showing normal uptake. We'll show the report to our doctor at QMH on our next appointment on Jun 15th. However, another BIG headache for Mama in the next 2 weeks - the Government has just announced all kindergartens & primary schools will be suspended for 2 weeks due to the recent H1N1 outbreak. So poor Adrian will have to stay home in the next 2 weeks.

Same routine as yesterday except the Scan was scheduled at 13:30. So Adrian had a normal school day and finished lunch at school before heading to HKSH. Adrian must have felt more comfortable today that he requested to sleep on the bed instead of being held by Mama after taking the sedation drug. The Scan took a little longer 30 mins this time and Adrian was still in deep sleep after the test. Mama let him slept on the couch in the waiting area for another hour before waking him up to go home. We were told the Scan is all complete and the report will be ready tomorrow morning!
