He is officially declared "Defluxed."

Actually, I'm certain that "Xander is now defluxed" appears no where in his charts. But he did have a bladder ultrasound today, in which the mounds containing the stuff implanted in his ureters were visible, indicating that they stayed in place, and are successfully working as the natural valve should have been all along. In other words, no more reflux. To truly confirm it, he'll have the big time test in 6 months, the one where they inject dye into his bladder then do a bunch of x rays while he pees it back out, to make sure it only goes out. Michael will get the joy of being with him this go round, since pregnancy and x rays aren't friends. So that'll be in December. Until then, we just assume he's fine. YAY!
