well, it went well, in that the test got done! But it was so sad to hear her cries, to hold her down - she kept saying, "Mommy, I'm so scared!"  But God was gracious, kept me strong, and so we got thru it.

It turns out she has what is called Grade 2 reflux to her right kidney. While I am disheartened a bit that she has any reflux, it is much better than it could be - more severe cases require surgery, and she will need daily antibiotics for at least a year, then repeat the test yearly until she hopefully outgrows it.

So thank you for your prayers. I felt like a wrung-out washrag by the end, but the Lord saw us thru it.
