Another penny update
Well, here we are Day 11 and still no penny. I spoke with the nurse at the pediatric gastro office in Austin, they would like to go ahead and schedule David for an endoscopy for Wednesday. We will arrive in the morning, they will xray him again and if the penny has passed or is showing in the colon or intestines, they will send us home. If it is still in the stomach, we go directly next door to the surgery center where they will do an endoscopy to remove the penny. David's still feeling ok, occasionally complains of abdominal pain but for the most part, is still going strong. I will spare him the details of what may lie ahead for him. I allowed him to attend half a day of his first day of school today and he had a great time. I need to keep him home so that I can be on hand to inspect his bowel movements. I think it would be above and beyond the call of duty for his teachers. So, we trudge on. Look for an update on Wednesday.
