Yesterday we spent the day in Vegas with doctors and nurses, doing some tests to see what was wrong with our little guys kidneys. We left at 6:30 a.m. and got home at 6:30 p.m. It was a long day. Our poor little thing had to get an I.V. and sit with a catheter for an hour and a half. They took pictures of dye running through his urethra, and watched his kidneys empty, and then took x-rays of his kidneys while his bladder was full and during and after it had emptied. He cried a little but for the most part he was a tough little guy. After tests we headed to the other side of Vegas to visit with our Pediatric Urologist. We did find out some good news. He does have a blockage or kink somewhere, but it is not bad enough to do surgery. We will need to keep an eye on it and do some testing every three months and hope that the blockage or kink fixes itself. We feel so lucky that for the most part he is a healthy little boy and are so grateful he will not be needing surgery!

That's too bad! How did you think or know that He had Kidney Problems... what are the symptoms? I had problems with my kidneys when I was Pregnant with Carter so I was just curious to know how you would know if they were having problems... Hopefully things get better!
I'm glad things turned out okay! It sucks when there sick, I always wish it was me and not my kids. I hope he gets feeling better.
