My husband rocks. And I am sooooooo relieved.

Neurosurgery asked for a repeat CT scan for the bone flap because the CT scan we took was not a high enough resolution.  We SPECIFIALLY did a CT while he was under anesthesia for the g tube for this exact purpose.  I followed up to make sure they were looking at the correct date since they did a 2nd quick CT the day before we left (to figure out that weird thing going on- Parker is just impatient and trying to grow his own bone.  No biggie.)

Anyway, we followed up and they said we still needed to do a high resolution scan.  This just did not feel right- so my sweet husband followed up with Neurosurgery again and explained a whole lot more... and it turns out Radiology DID do the correct scan, it was just not at full resolution in the shared system.  Radiology has all the correct data. I am SOOOOO relieved. I didn't realize how bad I did not want him to have to fast, be sedated and come out of anesthesia again, or have all that radiation until I found out I could cancel the appointment today.
