Mummys 'Little Star'

Kaden went to hospital for an MRI scan today.He was booked in for first thing in the morning and had to at the hospital for 8a.m.Mike took the day off and headed for the hospital first for 8a.m and i waited to see Regan off to school and then i headed straight for the hospital.We got there just around 9a.m just in time to see Kaden getting ready to head downstairs to the main hospital for his scan.Mike and i and Jaxon,a nurse and Kaden went to the scanning which was quite a walk away - the nusre had taken a wheelchair for Kaden but decided since i brought the pushchair that would suit better.Once at the MRI scanning area,they called Kaden through and Mike went through with him and waited until Kaden was given the Gas to put him to sleep - it breaks your heart watch him fight it and then drift off.Once asleep Mike came back to to waiting area where i was waiting with Jaxon and we waited for the nurse to come and tell us Kaden was ready to come back through and back to the ward.We got back to the ward at around 10.45a.m with a very unsettled Kaden who was just upset on waking up and wondering where he was.Once settled the nurse gave Kaden a slice of toast and some water - which Kaden had a good few bites of the toast and sips of water.If the food and water stayed down Kaden would get home.Thankfuly the food stayed down and we also gave him a bolus feed which stayed down.At around 12.45 we asked to be discharged and we got home.And thankfuly thats another hurdle over and we have to wait 2 weeks or so for the results.
Looking at Kaden later on in the day you would never know he'd been through anything different today.
Kaden was a real star today...and just took it all in his stride.
He was back to his normal cheeky self - standing on my windowsill which was a 1st for him today as he normally sits on it but today he went that step further and stood on it!
He also was walking around the kitchen with a pencil having a little scribble on the walls while casually walking past!
On a different note we got Jaxon weighed yesterday and he's upto 9lbs2oz.Boy does he like his milk!
I haven't taken pictures lately as my camera is still out of action - thanks to Kaden.
One day i'll take the time to look for my charger for my other camera, it's just trying to find the time with 4 kids as there's always something else comes up.
