Glad to be back home!

We called Joshua a kitty because his tape looked like whiskers..he thought it was funny

Joshua did great at the hospital yesterday. His procedure started about 7:30 and he was waking up from the Anesthesia around 8:30. It took him a little longer than normal to wake up from the Anesthesia. The nurses said he was pausing his breathing causing bradycardias, but he eventually got past that and they let us go back to see him. I guess he was reminiscing about all the attention he used to get in the NICU when he would have bradys...he is very good at  getting attention!

Joshua was pretty groggy for a while and fell asleep in our arms for quite a while afterwards. They placed the pH tube in through his nose and down into his stomach which is why you see all the tape on his face. This was left in all night and they finally took it out the next morning. He was not a fan of it at all. They put his arms in those little slings so he wouldn't tug on it and pull it out. We should have the results from this pH monitor in a week.

The doctor said everything was normal from the scope. He showed us all the pictures he took as he navigated down his esophogus and through his digestive tract. He also took some small biopsies of the tissues in several areas to determine if there are any problems. We should have these results in a couple weeks. In the meantime, we will continue with his medication. Thank you for all the prayers!
