Hearing Test and Learning to Cath

Today was a good day. Toby slept a lot, and had some difficulty waking up to eat, but as the day went on he improved and ate well. He failed his hearing test today, but the audiologist said that this is not uncommon in babies with mylomeningocele (spina bifida). We will just have to re-schedule another appointment in 6 weeks to have it re-tested.

Bruce and I took turns practicing performing the catheterization process. We found it isn't as intimidating as we once thought. It takes some time, about 15 minutes, since it's important for the bladder to be completely emptied. This has been good practice as they think he will be going home tomorrow! We added a few new photos today, so be sure to check them out. Good night.
