fever

Srikar is having fever from Thursday afternoon. Yesterday we took him to pediatrician, for blood test just to make sure his fever is not due to infection. Blood test came out normal. He was only taking milk for the last two days. He looks very tired and dehydrated. He is feeling little better today.He had little bit of solids for lunch. He is having more seizures than usual due to his fever.
We went to a Plastic surgeon at Children's Medical for Srikar's nevus and extra tissue on his left cheek and neck last week. The doctor told there isn't any laser which works for his nevus and because of the possible shunt infection they cannot do anything about the extra tissue. I was disappointed with the doctor's response. I was hoping laser could remove his nevus.
We will start Developmental services with ECI from next monday. It is going to be 3 sessions/month and increase it to 4 sessions/month.
He is babbling a lot nowadays, and is also getting used to ramp. He loves to play peek-a-boo.

  1. Oh...Srikar, what a cutie. I hope he is feeling well and that his fever is gone. I'm sorry to hear about the laser surgery for his nevus. I would be disappointed too. We think about you often!
