DR. VISITS, BLOOD WORK, & X-RAYS OH MY!!!

TODAY BRITTNEE AND TY WENT FOR CHECKUPS. I THOUGHT WE WERE JUST GOING IN TO GET THE USUAL STUFF. WEIGHT, HEIGHT, HEARING, VISION, SHOTS FOR TY AND SO ON. NOPE. THERE WERE NO SHOTS FOR TY BUT MUCH TO BRITTNEE'S DISMAY THERE WERE SHOTS FOR HER. ONE IN EACH ARM. OH YEA, SHE WAS NON TOO THRILLED. I AM SURE THE EXCITEMENT OF MISSING SOME SCHOOL DISAPPEARED WITH THAT NEWS. HER HEARING IS PERFECT. SHE HAS 20/20 VISION IN BOTH EYES. BRITTNEE WEIGHED IN AT 67LBS. AND IS NOW 4FT5. TY CAME OUT GOOD TOO. HE WEIGHED IN AT 26LBS. 4OZ. AND IS 35 1/4" TALL. BUT THAT WAS NOT THE END OF IT. TY'S ALLERGIES STARTED ACTING UP LAST NIGHT SO NEEDLESS TO SAY WE DID NOT GET MUCH SLEEP. HE NOW HAS A RUNNY NOSE AGAIN. I STARTED THE CLARITIN THIS MORNING AND WILL BE GIVING HIM SOME BENADRYL TONIGHT. ALSO, BRITTNEE HAS A LOT OF STOMACH ISSUES WHICH I ADDRESSED WITH THE DR. AND WITH THAT CAME ORDERS OF TAKING HER TO THE HOSPITAL TO HAVE AN X-RAY DONE. BUT, THAT WAS NOT ALL. WE ALSO HAD TO GO TO THE LAB TO HAVE BLOOD DRAWN FROM BOTH OF THEM. YEA, ITS BEEN ONE FUN MORNING. I AM A ZOMBIE WAITING TO EXPIRE. OF COURSE WE WILL NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE BLOOD WORK FOR A WHILE. THE X-RAY OF BRITTNEE WHICH I HAD TO TAKE BACK TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE SHOWED A LOT OF STOOL. I NOW HAVE TO GIVE HER A CAP FULL OF MIRALAX EVERY DAY FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. LETS HOPE THIS SOLVES THAT PROBLEM. AS FOR TY AND ALL HIS WONDERFUL VIRUSES THAT HE SEEMS TO GET WAY TOO OFTEN, THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO FOR THAT OTHER THAN WHAT I ALREADY STARTED DOING. THAT IS GIVING HIM LOTS OF VITAMINS TO BOOST HIS IMMUNE SYSTEM. APPARENTLY THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT VIRUSES OUT THERE THAT EVEN IF HIS SYSTEM BECOMES IMMUNE TO ONE HE STILL CAN CATCH THE OTHERS WHICH IS WHAT HE SEEMS TO DO. SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO VIRUSES AND TY HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE. YAY!!! WELL, ALL IN ALL THINGS COULD BE A LOT WORSE AND THEREFORE WE ARE OVERLY THANKFUL TO THE GOOD LORD FOR THE FACT THAT DESPITE THE SMALL PROBLEMS THAT OCCUR WITH OUR CHILDREN THEY ARE STILL VERY HEALTHY.
