Today was another trip to Lexington to Shriners Hospital. Nick had a 3 month check-up after receiving his new braces. This was Rachael's first time to Lexington. It's always worked out that she happened to be staying with friends whenever we had to go.
I actually remembered to bring my camera to get a picture with Nick & "Dr. T." Dr. Tylkowski is the Chief of Staff at Shriners and also Nick's Orthopedic Surgeon. I can't say enough good things about Dr. T and Shriners in general. Anyone who knows Nick, knows how much he can talk (and talk, and talk....) Whenever I try to shush him as he's talking about something that has absolutely nothing to do with the situation, Dr. T. always laughs and encourages him. He always makes sure that all our questions are answered and concerns are addressed - even telling us to call him anytime with issues that may arise. Everyone there is friendly and helpful. I've never met a rude person there - in any capacity - from the janitors to the receptionists to the doctors. I wish all medical facilities were this wonderful!
