Feeling much better

Just a quick update-- I (Bill) have been bad about posting in the Blog lately.

Brody has been feeling good since Friday evening. He was "tooting" a fair amount that afternoon so we are hoping his bellyache was from some extreme gas-- he ate a couple of skyline chili cheese coneys on thursday (2 at Cincinnati Childrens, and 2 more on way home) so we are hoping this was the source of his bellyache. Yesterday he felt good. He slept in as planned and he skipped his bowling league (I took Jaden-- Geordi was at a winter boyscout camp) and then yesterday afternoon we took Brody & Jaden to see "the nut job"which he liked a lot.

Last night we watched "The Blues Brothers" which he really likes. He gets a kick out of all the car crashes and likes the music for the most part.

His groin swelling has been well controlled so we have been easing up on waking him up at night to every 3 to 4 hours-- but during the day we try to make him pee every 30 minutes (set timers) so we don't get back to the point of him having to get up every 2 hours at night.

Overall he feels well most of the time and he has learned to adapt to what is his (our) new normal.

We got another few inches of snow last night and Brody expressed some interest in sledding yesterday on the way back from the movies (we drove past a nearby sledding hill) so if he is up to it we are going sledding in few hours.

Thanks again for everyones prayers, thoughts, & wishes.

Bill
