Sandi,

For Max we only have him wearing pants/shorts with an elastic band

all around his waist. The shorts & pants with snaps in the front

don't hold up around his cast well. These elastic waists are not the

easiest to find. Max actually only went up 1 size.

Also, Max is 2 years and we still have him wear a bib when he eats

and drinks to prevent the cast from getting wet.

Max also gets some redness from the cast rubbing on his hips. The

best thing we found to help with this is Aquaphor (it's like

vaseline, but not and made by Eucerin.

Shriner's Chicago does have food for the children, but I still

prefer to bring osme of Max's favorite. Sometimes you need Cherrios

or Puffs in a pinch! The hospital does have saltines, graham

crackers, Cherrios.....

Bring his bottle or sippy cup, whichever her prefers. We always

bring it to recovery for Max to have his clear liquids in.

Bring his favorite blanket, stuffed toy, books, etc....

Also, we bring his stroller with to the hospital. Max is an

outdoors child and after recovery we take him for a walk inside the

hospital and in the play area outside.

Bring all of your questions and patience.

We look very forward to meeting you on Wednesday! Travel safe!
