Green Light For Transfer

Yup you heard right!! Ayden passed his eye test!!! which means they wanna have us come back at some point for another check up throughout his development. But it’s nothing that is super urgent, which means he’s good in that department. Now that said.. he had a test today to check his urinary track infection. They had to put in a catheter to put in a fluid that the doctors could track on the Ultrasound. The test revealed that he was having some reflux so they’re gonna have to keep and eye on that… as a result Ayden will be on a low dose of antibiotic for a full year. But this is nothing that will hold him from being transferred, so… they’re going to meet all together as a team tomorrow. And then that being said… he’ll be moved to a bed at Grandriver.

So just to recap what Ayden has been through:

  1. Survived Delivery
  2. Survived Infection from Placenta
  3. Survived E-coli Infection in All His Tissues (which is a form of meningitis).
  4. Survived Brain Hemorrhage
  5. Survived a Form of Pre-term Lung Disease
  6. Survived CPAP
  7. Surviving Being Pre-Mature
  8. Survived Renal Reflux (urine flows back towards the kidneys)
  9. Survived Aspirating (Drowning on his own milk)
  10. Survived Another E-coli Infection (which is the Urinary Track Infection)
  11. Survived Lumbar Punctures

And this is why he got the name A-train, because he just keeps on going… the little boy who could.

    This is such wonderful news, I have tears of joy for you!!! Your little man is such a remarkable little man with great things ahead of him – nothing will stop him and he’s definitely proven it with his track record. Looking forward to finally getting to meet the newest Little Gamer 🙂
