We will be leaving at around 6 am to make our way toward children's mercy hospital. Our first stop ( besides breakfast ) will be the down syndrome clinic. The down syndrome clinic is a several hour appointment to say the least. We basically sit in one room for several hours while different specialist rotate through your room ..... I'm talking like 8-10 specialist!! It gets overwhelming at times. The last time we were there was in oct of last year. ( shortly after masons open heart surgery. It was easy then because mason pretty much just slept and ate at that age ..... Well now mason is a mover and shaker! He is into everything! He wants down to run around and walk.... So 4 hrs of trying to contain a toddler ..... Please pray for us ;)
After the down syndrome clinic we will go to the endocrinologist , to see what we can do for Masons thyroid issues. ( his thyroid is elevated :(
THEN....
We drive 30 min south to another appointment. This one is the optamologist to see about mason having eye surgery to correct 3 different issues going on... More on that later ....
Then finally we will load up and head back home . Mommy is just hoping for good news all around ... But I have a feeling were looking at at least 3 surgeries ......
Any prayer would be greatly appreciated.
Ps
This child is doing great with self feeding ..... If you can't tell!!!

Hope all of your appointments go smoothly. We kind of know what that is like, but not the 8-10 specialists. More like 3 to 4 for cardiology visits! What a big kid he is becoming!
