He's gotten so much bigger since I saw him last and his hair is really growing..such a sweet boy. And our friend Cynthia (crb) came by to sit with us as well. While at A&M he didn't get excited and go into a wheezing spell like he had been...he was too busy watching everything else going on. But they did hear some wheezing when they listened to his trachea. They took a good history and did head, neck, and chest x-rays. His lungs looked good and his pins hadn't moved at all so that really made Vicki feel better as she was very afraid he had reinjured his neck. So his x-rays looked good. You can't really see collapsed trachea on x-rays most of the time or see irritation so they couldn't definitively diagnose him tonight. They suspect it could be allergies, irritation from choking on a treat last week, gastroesophageal reflux, or maybe collapsing trachea. They are overnighting Pepsid tomorrow for him to start on since the pharmacy was closed and they needed to make up a special dose for him since he is so small. And Vicki will be bringing him back for a check-up on Friday. So we'll see if his wheezing gets worse, better, or stay the same.

So..good news! Pins are in place and x-rays looked good. Bleu Boy is stable and his wheezing will be monitored. Next checkup this Friday.

Thankyou everyone for keeping Vicki, Mark, and Bleu Boy in your prayers and for calling, texting, and leaving messages here. I know Vicki really appreciates everyone's concern for her baby.
