We had a great day today. It was busy..but great. First we went to the blood donor clinic and I donated for the first time. I'm so happy to finally do it..last time I got sick so I couldn't. I was very anxious about the whole process. But it was a peice of cake. The actual blood taking part only took 6 minutes... Then we had lunch with friends. Benjamin was perfect and it was so nice to go out to a restaurant and just have a nice time with friends... Then we saw the surgeon this afternoon. She was thrilled with Benjamin. She couldn't believe how big Benjamin was :) She was also so happy with his hernia. It has gotten remarkably smaller since our last appointment. She is hoping over time it will continue to get smaller and then her job of fixing it will be easier. So we booked another appointment for March 29th. So surgery has been bumped until spring at the earliest. She also said we could start weaning him off his meds. So we're starting with his domperidone..the one that helps him digest faster and once he's off that we'll try taking him off his lansoprazole..for reflux. If he has issues, then we just start them up again. It would be so great to get him off everything. Things are so great. We are so thankful...Benjamin is definitely a miracle.
