Physical Exam/Social Worker Visit

Hello Everyone,
This is simply an update of the week's events. On Monday, Shen had the next physical exam in his journey toward becoming a U.S. Citizen. His current pediatrician, Dr. Ochs, is a wonderful man, who Shen loves. She got the next set of vaccinations required for his immigration standing and the physical exam revealed that he has some blockage (wax) in his ears but a little prescription for eardrops should take care of that. We also received a prescription to get another ultrasound. As you may remember, there was a slight shadow on his kidneys in the last ultrasound. We want to rule out any complications from the melamine "scare" from China and ensure that he doesn't have kidney stones.
Amy Trotter, our social worker, paid us a visit last Tuesday, and we really enjoyed having her here. Amy spent about 1-1/4 hours with us and asked some very detailed about Shen's habits, capabilities with care and language, etc. It was a great experience to see what the expectations were and the checklist she had to ensure that he was doing OK. I think he passed with flying colors :)! He really is doing quite well.
This is a big week coming up. On Wednesday, we have a morning court date for the re-adoption. If you remember, I went by myself to China to get Shen and this court appearance is for all of us to go so that Jodie and I both are his formal parents. Then, we will begin the process to apply for U.S. Citizenship.
We hope and pray that all of you are well.
Love,
Jack, Jodie, Connor and Shen
