Last week Nicholas had a pulmonology check-up appointment at Doernbechers Children's Hospital. We absolutely love his pulmonologist, Dr. Powers. He's so kind, always willing to listen, and offers good insight and advice or Nicholas's diverse needs. Dr. Powers said that Nicholas is moving air in his lungs quite well, and in fact, he said that Nicholas has never sounded better! Yippee! He is also going to help us get a portable cough assist so that when Nicholas goes to Kindergarten in the fall he will be able to take the portable one with him instead of the large, heavy, non-portable one we have now. An added bonus is that Dr. Powers does not think Nicholas needs a sleep study right now since he's not having any desats at night and is sleeping peacefully.
The best part of this visit for Nicholas was to find the cool fire engine bed in his patient room. That made Nicholas's whole day!
