As we decided to write this blog we wanted it to be about the family and not about the doctors so we have decided not to use the doctor’s names. However, we know that might be confusing as we meet with more and more doctors so we have created a “Key” (or "Legend" if you will) below to help keep track of all the doctors.

Lita & Gramps

Spanish
Grandma Sue &
Grandpa Doug – Nate’s mom & dad
Amy – JD’s
primary nurse who not only went to University of Texas but is also from San

April Rotation of
Doctors
Attending: Dr. R –
He was there from the beginning and continues to check in on JD after his
rotation.
Fellow: Dr. O (a.k.a
Dr. Sooner) – Doctor currently in his Fellowship at Children’s Memorial. We
feel very comfortable with Dr. O and find it very easy to discuss JD’s progress
with him each day. He takes his time with us and stops by just to say hi when
we are in the room. Plus, he knows Dr. D very well so once again Team JD is
pretty strong. Even after his rotation off JD’s team he checks in with JD at
least once a week.
Resident: Dr. H –
“Hipster” Resident who wears dope Justin Timberlake Ray Ban reading glasses.
May Rotation of
Doctors
Attending: Dr. M
- Not much to say, we saw Dr. M
only twice outside of rounds and we are not sure she even looked at JD.
Fellow: Dr. G –
Not much interaction with Dr. G but she was friendly
Resident: Dr. N –
“Detailed Orientated” Resident who listens to our concerns. She may not have
much power but she has helped our cause to getting JD home.
June Rotation of
Doctors
Attending: Dr. P
– She is direct and to the point which is okay with me as long as she continues
to follow our path for discharge.
Resident: Dr. R –
Another very organized resident who is keeping us right on track with our
discharge timing
Dr. C – Pediatric
Surgeon who will be performing JD’s G-Tube surgery
