No notes

On Monday we took Noah to colchester to see the paediatrician.  It was in the new children's wing....and very nice it is too.  We got there about 15 minutes early and were the first there.  Noah got weighed and came in at a whopping 19lb 6oz.  Then we had to go and sit and wait.  They were trying to locate his notes.  They knew they were back in colchester after being at Harwich on the previous Wednesday and they were supposed to be being delivered but there were no signs of them.  Eventually the doc turned up and we still had no notes.  She went off to see if she could find the faxed letter so that she had some idea as to why she was seeing Noah.  In the mean time a young woman pulling a pink cart walked in, dumped something on the reception area without telling anyone (no reception cover that day) and walked off.  We mentioned it to the nurse and lo and behold they were Noah's notes....and the nurse was so annoyed.

So we eventually saw the doc....a very nice lady.  She'd seen Noah in special care...I didn't recognise her but then he did see so many.  She basically did some checks on him like reflexes...which he just laughed at....asked some questions and looked into his eyes.  Se agreed he needed the MRI and said it would be within the next few weeks and that she would call me when she had the results.  He also has to have a whole heap of blood tests.  The MRI will be done under sedation as there is no way he'd lay still enough for it to be done.  She'll then see him in 3 months time....so again we wait and wait and then for fun wait some more.
