Benny Update



Cathy had a very good visit with Beth yesterday. Benny is off the oxygen, and he is enjoying a nice smile without that wicked tape on his cheeks. The results of the milk scan were negative, it did not show any aspirating. However, there is some minimal reflux, but it is no cause for his symptoms. Although Benny is much better and happier, it is still an undiagnosed condition. They would like to see him go home and have Beth manage on the home front, but she is waiting for more information on how she should proceed. He still has the wheezing with the retractions. There is still some discussion on the bronchial scope where they would look for obstruction. Beth also mentioned that the cat scan was very detailed and there was nothing there.
I am flying into New York tomorrow and will be staying with Cathy for the weekend and then to Warwick to help Beth. You all have my cell if anything comes up.
