To those who've asked about the grand babies, we have actually received diagnosis 1 and 2; with # 1 being misdiagnosed.
Austin, the 12 year old misdiagnosed, is having surgery Wednesday on his ankle to remove the bone which broke off. The only thing the Doctor says he can do for his foot (which has been fractured for 2 1/2 years) is to put a tight tennis shoe on it and a brace.
Aiden, the 3 year old, was given one more chance not to get strep throat (4 times in one month), and, unfortunately the Doctor is saying he never really got over it. The Doctor does not want to perform a tonsillectomy on a 3 year old because of complications, but because he is a BIG little boy with BIG tonsils, he'll be operated on soon.
This is going to be one busy grandmother; one busy citizen advocate; one busy person working on "two" businesses in downtown trying to bring them back up to snuff... If I don't get to your comments soon enough, please allow me to apologize up front. Not that I don't care, time is short & sweet. Promise I'll check in every eve, at least.
Take care, New Albany. From what they have told me about my oldest grandson (the misdiagnosis), I have a new lease on life and can breathe. Thanks, again, to the friends and family who care. Take care.

Hope Austin's surgery goes perfectly and everyone is ok.
Austin had his surgery at 6:30 am this morn. They took one bone out of his ankle and ground another one down, becos of the wear and tear that happened because of the misdiagnosis.
Thank you for caring! He's home, in a lot of pain, but his Momma took off from Boys Haven and wants to be with him.
Aiden, the 3-year old, is up next week to have his tonsils out. They don't want to do this with him this young, but four counts of strep throat in one month put him on the operating table, 2. We'll know Friday when his surgery is.
Take care, NA, and thanks for asking!
Aiden gets to have his tonsilectomy next Friday morning. He'll have his Momma for the weekend, which will make them both feel better! We understand it's outpatient surgery now...my, my, how things change - but yet stay the same.
