And he was still smiling
As they took him for the CT scan Here is to hoping they find the information they need and that he returns to us in nearly the same smiley state he left us in

Marshall loves… kisses!
All About Perspective
And despite being NPO again this morning, Marshall thankfully seems pretty happy 🙂
Hold that CT Scan
It has been postponed. Three and a half hours into the npo (nil per os = no food by mouth) period for the CT scan, the docs rounded and said it couldn’t be done. 30 minutes before the procedure was set to start. So, we’ll try again when they are able to fit him […]

A wise person taught me that it is easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission. So stop reading now because this is where I beg for your forgiveness. Breathe. Thirteen days ago we received the very unexpected “it could be worse” news. And I haven’t mentioned it on the site […]
