We just returned from our first appointment with Dr. Rich. He is Kaegan's pediatrician. Dr. Rich was great. He read the medical reports that we have, answered all of our questions and set Kaegan up as a patient. We will schedule Kaegans first check up the following week we return home. Dr. Rich is not too concerned about the hole in Kaegans heart but does want to check it out. He said that it amazes him that China would consider this child a special needs. His heart condition is so normal here and has most likely already healed up. Isn't that great!! Dr. Rich will run some blood tests and check all vaccinations to determine if a certain vitamin will be needed. Most of the adopted children are malnourished and he said that it is nothing that a few happy meals won't fix.
It was great meeting with the Doctor and I look forward to Kaegan's first visit. Hopefully next month.
