We had a very good day on Wednesday, starting with Robbie sleeping pretty good despite our tight quarters here. We then headed to see Dr. Gearhart at 9:30 a.m., but just missed him because he had a surgery, so we waited around the hospital for about 45 minutes until he could see us. Once he did see us is where the really good day started, he said the rash was gone enough for him to operate. We will have the surgery on Friday morning at 7:30 a.m. (just 3 days later than planned). Now our job is to keep the diaper rash away until surgery time. Once the surgery is over, Dr. Cohen (dermatologist) will add an anti-fungal IV to Robbie, so the rash doesn't flare up.
Once we got the good news from Dr. G, we grabbed some lunch and then headed to the National Aquarium. The RMH has passes for the house members and we really enjoyed going down there. Robbie loved the fish tanks where he could get his nose right on the glass and really see the fish. He was probably a little too young to really enjoy it, but had fun anyway.
The adventure of the day started after dinner last night though. A group came in and made a giant spread of food that was delicious. Everyone ate a lot and enjoyed dinner, but about 2 hours later people were getting sick from something they ate and they actually took 9 people to the hospital for food poisoning last night. Right after Saree told me about this we both suddenly didn't feel good and thought we were going to get sick. That just tells us how powerful your mind is because neither of us were sick and probably didn't even eat the food that got people sick.
Thursday is going to be a day where we just try to relax and maybe go drive to see the ocean or something, nothing too exciting.
