Scootie still has a mass in his abdomen but it is much smaller. It
could be a node that has gone up temporarily, or something not to be
concerned about, or there's a low chance that it's something we need
to get out now, but not being sure he'll be having an ultrasound on a
non-emergency basis. It's well defined but small and has shrunken.
Feels like a B-B in there but smaller... The symptoms he'd had are
gone. He had marked constipation and then runs with vomiting. If it
was all from an infection it hit him with a real bang; he almost
collapsed due to blockage from a few very dried out pieces of feces
that later came out with projectile diarrhea.

Sevie has her lower part of her heart rate back to 60 after the
increase in her aminophylline. She'll likely go in when Tootie does
and will have a follow-up EKG. Her meds are really giving her a life
right now. She has no pain at all though she seems to be aware that
she tires out and gets cool if she goes too wild, and has become good
at moderating and monitoring herself.
