Alison had a check-up with her pediatrician today. He said that she's doing well. She weighed 50.some pounds and was 47 inches tall. That was good to know, since that's what she weighed and how tall she was at Spina Bifida clinic last week . :) Dr. Mauch also took a look at the films of her ankle and said he thought they looked ok, too. He's a little concerned because her ankle is still rather swollen, but stopped short of having it x-rayed again because we're going to be seeing Dr. Craig next week and he'll make the final call on whether it's ok or not.

In addition to having her x-rays looked at again, I had two more things I wanted to talk about. I wanted to see if we can get Alison tested to get an official peanut allergy diagnosis, so we have a referral to an allergist. The other thing I wanted to talk about was getting a recommendation for a child psychologist, per the recommendation of the neuropsychologist we saw earlier this year. However, the doctor did not seem to feel that was necessary. I can't say that I agree with him and I'm a little annoyed that he brushed off my concerns, but I did not push the issue today because it was getting late and I wanted to get Alison to school as soon as possible so she wouldn't have to miss any more than necessary. So that's where we stand for today.
