Nephrologist and Oxygen

Conor and Garrett are going home with Grandma and Grandpa Fabian tomorrow for a visit; it will be a nice break for mommy and will allow for Bruce and I to have some time together alone and with Toby. Wednesday, Toby will see the urologist. It's a follow up from his renal (kidney) ultrasound. They are finding nephrocalcinosis or calcium in his kidneys; he's actually had calcium in his kidneys since birth. They're not acting like it's anything major, but the Urology Nurse Practitioner did mention that they might refer us to a Nephrologist (a doctor that specializes in kidneys) to see if we should be concerned about this. He does not have kidney stones; so we will see what happens with that.
