Brody was finally able to come home Tuesday after 9 days in the hospital. We took him to the ER with a swollen ankle, and after x-rays, bloodwork, and an MRI, they found an infection in his right ankle joint. He had 3 surgeries over 6 days to drain and clean his ankle. He is home at last and he is doing well. He is still on antibiotics for the next 4 weeks and the incisions on his ankle will take time to heal. At least now he will have a good excuse for not walking, and he'll have some good battle scars to show off. It amazes me how brave and tough our little man is. We want to thank everybody for their help, support and prayers during the last few weeks. We are so happy to finally have him home!
