Zane remains an enigma—at least his symptoms and what they mean do.
His pediatrician called yesterday to say the tests all came back normal. A couple of visits ago, I asked whether or not Zane’s soy formula could be the source of his troubles; perhaps he developed an allergy or intolerance to it over time. She wanted to take one step at a time—which is totally understandable. Now that the tests shows no obvious gastrointestinal issues, she is pursuing that line of thought. She sent a prescription to Zane’s health supply company for a change in formula. The company has to obtain insurance approval, so we won’t have anything until next week. He is going to give EleCare Jr. a try. It is a hypoallergenic formula for kids who have food allergies and the symptoms Zane has exhibited. I’m looking forward to giving it a try. I sure hope it works because the next step will include seeing a GI specialist in Denver .
Keep good thought and fingers crossed, please.
Tell Zane that I dropped soy months ago. He'll feel better.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed, asking the Great Physician to help.
ReplyDeleteHello my friend Susan! Always nice to come back to read your beautiful article. Very understandable , simple and elegant. I wish a excellent weekend for you, with very smiles and peace! Visit me too. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro/Brasil.
ReplyDeleteSusan: He is a cutie! One of Heavenly Father's special children sent to earth to teach us so many things: patience, unconditional love; and that every human being, whatever the so-called "disabilities," is important.
ReplyDeleteMy friend in L.A. (she's 75 now, I'm 71) wants me to write with her the story of her son who was born deaf, with half a brain; doesn't talk, doesn't walk. Has Moebius Syndrome. He's in a wheelchair, lovingly cared for by his family until he was 11 and now in a great facility in San Bernardino, California. But his life has great purpose....
As does this adorable little boy named Zane. What a great smile! Would love to hug him.
