The doctors have run all sorts of tests on Kirby...They had to stop at one point because he had the doctor laughing so hard he couldn't continue. Leave it to Kirby to make what he considers a scary situation funny.
They were performing an Upper GI on him which consists of him fasting for 12 hours before hand and then having him drink a very chalky barium solution and they watch it go down. They are trying to rule out acid reflux. The bed during the Upper GI moves slowly different directions and angles and a very slow speed. Apparently as the bed was moving Kirby grabbed the side rails and very loudly announced, as the bed was moving, that they were really cruising now!! The bed was rotating at a whopping, mach .0000000000000000000000000000005
When the doctor and nurses started laughing he started to exclaim that due to the amount of lead in the walls his flying capabilities, x-ray vision, and his strength were gone! Suddenly he was a normal person and he didn't know what to do with himself.
Luckily for the nurses Kirby and I made an agreement that he was not allowed to complain about the chalky like substance until it was all over. He was, however, allowed to make all the faces he wanted. The punishment for berbally bashing something we already knew he wouldn't like was no playstation for the day.
He didn't like the deal but being the trooper that he has been through all of this he did fantastic. He came out of it feeling pretty good that he a mere 13 year old actually stumped the doctor. He felt pretty smart at that point.
Although we still don't know what is going on with him, we are patiently waiting! I should hear back from the doctors office tomorrow and know more!'
It's still a waiting game :)
