We received wonderful news at Joshua's visit to CHOA today! The barium enema showed no obstructions, strictures, or narrowings - hallelujah!! If the contrast study had shown any of these things, another invasive surgery would have been necessary which would be absolutely horrid. The GI doc also cleared Joshua to eat veggies and he will be able to get off his IV fluids for an additional 4-6 hours starting next week!! This is amazing for our daily routine - we will no longer have to keep Joshua occupied in bed or on the floor constantly keeping him untangled from his IV lines until noon. It's a big change for us to receive all good news at one of these visits. We are so very excited about his super progress!

And the highlight of our day at CHOA was meeting three of our favorite nurses for a long overdue visit! We miss seeing these special ladies every day :)
Last week we took Joshua to the little Bear Hollow Zoo in Athens. Although we have lived here for 14 years, we have never been to this free local landmark. Joshua had a great time and we strolled around Memorial Park afterwards to extend our outside time.
