Lights, Tunnels & All That

Okay, it's 12:30 in the morning & I'm exhausted, so here's the super-short update on my brief lapse into hopelessness yesterday:

1) Furniture situation is resolved, with much thanks to our church & family in Missouri.

2) Our insurance company is dealing with the Semi company's insurance. They are filing a mini-tort claim on our behalf and (for some reason) sending us a check for $64.00.

3) My favorite of Little Pom's three nephrologists mentioned today that he and LP's Urological surgeon were discussing trying a medication on LP that may delay (or even eliminate!) the need for the Mitrofanoff procedure. I'm scared to be too hopeful, since everything seems to be progressing so rapidly, but seriously....my kidlet needs to be cut a break already! And I've always been too stupid to stop hoping, LOL.

4) We are 1/2 way through Little Pom's nightly dialysis and....so far, so good! Every evening he experiences a brief period of pain. Pain strong enough to make him cry...but he only gives it a 4 on a scale of 1 to 10. Thankfully, tylenol, a warm pack & an ice pack all together seem to help. He's sleeping (finally!) and we haven't had an alarm beep yet.

Keep your fingers crossed for us. :-) It seems like Scarlett was right. "Tomorrow is another day."
