Sorry for the late update

Geez, I should be in bed right now, but I feel so bad for taking so long to let you all know that Avery's MRI came back normal. All the spots of bleeding that they saw before have resolved!!!! Thank you God and thank you everyone for your prayers for her. She is being a bit stubborn on the whole formula-front, though. No, really, she can't help having a milk allergy. She could not tolerate the hypoallergenic formula so now she is taking Neocate, an amino-acid based formula that is available by prescription only. So far, so good. She will also be starting Axid for GERD. Fun, fun, fun. Another kid on meds. Tomorrow she has her 2-month check-up so I'll post more and pictures after that.

I guess it is up to us if we want to try to treat Shelby with medication for the elevated ammonia. We are discussing it still. Also, her ultrasound mentioned a gallbladder. Uh, hello, we were told that was removed during her Kasai. So what is the radiologist seeing then....the nurse in Chicago is following up on that one.

Riley, Riley, Riley....we went to the library on Tuesday only to have her finish all her books by the end of the day. Did I mention she is reading at a 4th grade level (just a reminder she just completed 1st grade)! Back to the library again tomorrow. She is extra-cute now, too, as she lost another tooth!

Please follow the link at the right to my Mom's blog and watch for updates on my Dad. He just spent 6 days in the hospital with a nasty infection. Please send prayers his way for a full and speedy recovery.

I hope to update this weekend.
