i was thinking today that i had forgotten to mention how L's ECG had turned out. the nurse called and told me that everything had looked great in the test. and that we didn't need to worry about the murmur. good to know. and we also went to see the pediatric urologist last week to check on her little lonely kidney (L only has one, to remind y'all). the ultrasound showed that her kidney IS growing, but not a huge amount. the hydronephrosis (a nice way to say that there is extra fluid in the kidney) is still there and looks the same. so basically, it has not gotten any better, but also hasn't gotten any worse. so for now, we just keep monitoring it and we'll check back in with the urologist in a few months. so that is our news with all our dr. appointments from last week.
