Hoy Boys Update

Thankfully Jackson's fever broke mid-day yesterday and his limp is improving.  As expected, it seems like the fever and the foot pain were just coincidental.  This morning Jackson seemed fine and we sent him off to preschool.  I'm hopeful that was the right decision and we don't get a call midday to come get a sick Jackson. 

Matthew doesn't seem to be wheezing anymore, but has a nasty cough.  He's been more alert and less fatigued, so hopefully this is the last step to wellness! 

Today we are going to see the orthopedist to adjust the helmet yet again.  That (supposedly bone) spot on the back of his head is still rubbing and is very irritated.  We left Matthew out of the helmet for a 24 hour period last week, but he was in it 23 hours a day otherwise.  Now this morning, he's out of it again until we see the orthopedist this afternoon.  I don't want him to further harm that area, but I also want to get the helmet back on.  Hopefully the orthopedist will be able to make the right adjustment today so we can get the helmet back on for the duration of the time Matthew needs to be in it.
