***This is a repost from Caden's Caring Pages which were written while we were waiting for, and after Caden's Cranial Vault Reconstructive surgery***
Today Caden had his CT scan. We had to be at TCH at 7 am...which was really early for everyone! Poor Caden wasn't able to eat after midnight, but Mommy woke him up early and gave him a sippy cup of water/juice so he wouldn't be super hungry.
We finally made it back to the CT room and they swaddled Caden up and buckled him in the machine. He looked so tiny! They let Mommy and Daddy stay in the room with lead vests on to help distract him. He did so well that he didn't have to be sedated...which made Mommy SO happy! Mommy and Daddy were so proud of Caden, he was such a trooper and big boy!
As soon as we finished, Mommy set out Caden's cereal, milk and fruit for him to eat because she knew that he would be starving- but he refused to eat it. Instead, he ate 4 of Mommy's powered donuts, but Mommy didn't mind because he was way too cute with all the sugar around his mouth! (And he deserved those donuts after all he went through).
The CT report will be sent to Dr. Bollo and the plastic surgeon and from there we will come up with a game plan and the surgery will be scheduled.
Since today is Halloween we need to go visit the pumpkin patch and get Caden dressed up as a cute little monkey! Happy Halloween everyone!
