Thomas

Thomas is still the same today. Looks like this is the same or similar thing that West had a couple of weeks ago. He got up to 104 today so I took him back in, not a uti, not the flue, not ears, not upper respiratory..??? So when we don't know and a cbc is not showing bacterial we call it a virus. Just in case I will trust Sam and leave him on the rx. Hopefully he will be getting better tomorrow. He has been more listless today and really just laying around.
What we did learn today was that we got some of his test results back in from last Friday. Someone how they did not complete the whole allergy panel or really any of it so we did not get that. Hopefully they still have the blood and will go ahead and do that part. That way we wont have to stick him again. What we did get back was the Celia cs Disease which was positive. I have had a whole host of emotions since we found that out, after the sugar scare this week, my first reaction was " This is no big deal!" but also I was sad for Thomas sad bc this is a life long allergy that you never outgrow, you don't get rid of it, and for the rest of his life he will have live on gluten free diet. No ordering pizza with his pals, no snacks at school unless we deam they are safe, fast food? Eating out? After an afternoon of research and a trip to Earth Fare I feel a lot more at peace. Earth Fare has a bunch of papers that they give you that breaks down on each aisle what is safe and what is not. Also publix just faxed me over something similar. I bought a bunch of stuff at EF and we had some for dinner, everything was really good!
And I should mention that I called Chick fa lae headquarters and the nurtionist is going to call me when she gets back from vacation, their webiste was pretty helpful but I wanted to talk to her personally.
Sooo..here we go! Our God is good, even with the CD diagnosis for Thomas, we still have him, he just perfect in our eyes, I guess in the wake of the Chapmen tradegy this just does not seem like a big deal..
