Ian started Kindergarten today and had a great day. His teacher, Mrs. Slusser, is aware of Ian's medical needs and seems like she will be proactive about things. She has dealt with some servere allergy kids previously and so has some background about wiping things down, precautions, etc.Ian will be dropped off in the morning because of his prograf medication. His bus would come to get him at 6:42AM which is crazy! His prograf time is 8am so to keep it as close to that time as possible (without having it given at school which is not our first choice) we're driving him in and squirting the med in his mouth has he gets out of the car.
Ian just had labs yesterday but will be missing school for labs, clinic, illness (his own or classmates) etc. He can only miss 10 days of school even with an excuse so we are working with school administrators to make sure that Ian isn't penalized for his liver transplant.
He liked the different centers in the class room giving high kudos for the computer center, rice table and reading area (although he hasn't found a Thomas the Train book yet). I look forward to good things this school year and know that Ian will be a great Kindergarten Boy!
