Paediatrician and paediatric intensivist

Today we had a paediatrician review to discuss the Sydney trip but we weren't really ready. We only had two letters and we had not gone through any of the recordings yet to consolidate our understanding of what we had learned in Sydney.

The paediatrician was impressed by the size of Raphael's tonsils and wants us to see our ENT to discuss removal again. She would like to wait until Raphael is over his current infection though.

While we were there we managed to see Raphael's intensivist who showed us how to setup the humidifier on Raphael's CPAP machine and also gave us the ability to make minor changes to the pressure if Raphael needs it. We also discussed the possibility of using the "AutoSet" feature on the CPAP machine but decided against.
