This is certainly great to hear, pneumaticmatt. Keep us posted. I agree with Joe's input re: probiotics. I've read that one can take probiotics and antibiotics concurrently as long as you are not taking them at the same time of day - here is some data (and perhaps Psyche can chime in here too):

"During antibiotic therapy, taking probiotics as well keeps the intestinal flora in proper balance. They can be taken together, but not at the same time of day. In order for the probiotics to be the most effective, they should be taken at least two hours after each dose of antibiotic. When the treatment has been completed, double or triple the probiotic supplements for about ten days or two weeks. Probiotics should be taken with food or shortly after eating as food dilutes the stomach acids enough for them to survive their trip through to the intestines where they belong."

"When taking beneficial bacteria or an antimicrobial agent, pathogens begin to die off. This sometimes causes unpleasant side effects known as The Jarisch-Herxheimer Reaction, so named for the German dermatologist who first identified it. As pathogens begin to die, others try to escape by quickly exiting the body. When these microbes appear in large numbers, the exit routes from the body begin to clog -- much like rush hour traffic! It is at this point that the host may begin to experience headaches, bloating, gas, or allergy-type symptoms. Depending on the individual's level of tolerance for these unpleasantries, the dosage of probiotics may have to be reduced until the symptoms subside, and then increased slowly to the maximum recommended. Regardless of first appearances, it is important to realize that this reaction is a positive indication that all is going well."

Hi All,

We've been home a week and all is going very well.

I finally posted a few pictures online as I said I would.

I want to do some more work on this album but this will give ya'll a good view of what the little guy's going through.

We'll be going back around mid August for the removal of the distraction device.
I'll be reaching out again when we are ready for this procedure.

Thank you 1984 for the probiotics information, I'll read through this carefully.


Cheers!

Thank you for the photos Pneumaticmatt. Sutton has the sweetest facial expression...I'm very glad he is doing well, with such a big device for such a little fellow this is probably not very easy on him...

But the most important is really his recovery, and I'm glad that so far everything is going so well.
My thoughts are with you, and I wish Sutton a smooth and fast recovery!
 
I'm glad to hear the good news and wish Sutton a smooth and fast recovery as well. Thank for sharing the new photos Pneumaticmatt.
