Micturating Cystogram (MCU in short)

One year ago, last year Aug 1, Tues Jere had this test....
Micturating Cystogram (MCU in short)
This was what I was told. A fine tube will be put through the urethra (the hole thru which urine is passed) with a special solution running slowly thru the fine tube into the bladder. x rays films are taken by the radiologist during and after the procedure. i remember i was crying throughout the procedure as Jere screamed and cried coz it certainly was not as easy as it sounded. Poor baby was strapped into a weird "space craft" and the machine turned turned turned.... certainly scary to the baby.

About 1 year later tomorrow, Jere will be doing this test again to assess progress.
Pray for Jere to be filled with the Lord's peace as he goes through this tomorrow and me too as i hold him down and comfort him.
