Clean Bill of Health!

Elana got to see the doctor yesterday.  She did great.  The doctor said everything sounded great.  She did make a comment about the eyelid surgery.  I told Angie if/when we adopt again, she should contact the orphanage and tell them not to allow any surgeries on the child.  This is the second time where our child has had some kind of botched surgery.  Kiersten had one on her foot due to the size of her leg.  She will forever have scar tissue because of that.  Our next step will be an Eye doctor.  Elana did have to get two shots, but she handled it well.  In China, she did not care for the doctor's visit.  They tend to treat that visit in a very mechanical way.  It is sort of an assembly line of checks.

First, we will have to wait on the insurance.  We thought it was settled, but the whole name thing is still getting in the way.  They have her as two people.  One with a Chinese name and one with an English name.  Even thought it is the same child, the system can not handle that.  If you are adopting and trying to set up insurance, just use the Chinese name until you readopt him/her.  It will save you a lot of headaches.
