Slugger!
All went well with the MRI today at DUKE. Duke is like the equivalent of checking into the CLUB MED hospital (very fun). He was met by all of these very smart and beautiful ...nurses who have toys and games and items to explain what they are doing. So he is escorted by these women and then they ask him what movie he wants to watch and they all rub his arm etc. They gave Andrew a funny drug called versed (sp?) that made him think there were 4 eyes on a picture of a cat on the curtain. He was talking and then sleeping and then tried to stand up with jello legs...They gave it to him because he was so nervous about the needles. But he is amazing. The test went well and Andrew has no issues with his pituitary with the exception of the fact that it is slightly small. He will go on human growth hormone but now he is thinking positive. When he left they gave him a baseball that measures your pitching speed. It was one of the gifts he wanted for christmas but didn't get. He told them that....and was really happy (but that's also because they call versed 'happy juice')Then he said ""I can't take the human growth hormone it is illegal in baseball (he loves baseball and wants to be a player when he grows up)" I said "I think it is okay when it is just little league. Plus it might make you hit further." He said: "really?" I said "Really..you'll just have to stop before you go pro."..I just hope they don't do random testing here with the Cary Parks and recreation....HA!
