Tomorrow

We head back to our pediatrician tomorrow and then the GI specialists Monday. Someone had asked me today if it was in fact Roto virus. He had tested positive on his 2nd stay at an ER but the white blood cell count did not reflect what they thought they would see with that virus and later tests he came back negative for Roto. He also tested negative for it during the most recent hospital stay. So we are a little suspect of that, plus he had his Roto vaccines already.

He looks good, is playing and eating. It is so just so hard not to worry. I just want to scream. How do parents do this that have kids sicker than mine? I don’t know. I have guarded optimism and will never rest until this lovebug is healthy.

On an unrelated note I flew in a B-17 bomber for 1/2 and hour today. Colin would love that I am sure when he gets older.

Pictures coming :)

I will be praying for you and your family through this. I understand what you mean when you say your heart is outside your body. I have 3 healthy little boys and an amazing husband and anytime they have been in pain... well its my pain too. God bless you and keep you and your family safe.

The deep love and devotion you have for your son is so evident in your postings, he's the gift that God has entrusted you with. Do all you can for him, continue being his advocate and when you've done all you can, just stand still and pray. Trust that God is watching over this beautiful baby boy that He has blessed you with and trust that He will keep His hand upon him, even when things "appear" differently.

I'm very anxious to find out how Colin is and how the visit went with the Specialist...

My prayers go out to you and your family for Colin's speedy recovery.
Please do me a favor and keep yourself, and others from saying that Colin is "sick". I am not sure what your level of faith is, however, I do understand that you know God because I have read you comments about what your family is going through. The tongue is one of the smallest members of your body, but one of the most powerful. SPEAK LIFE over every situation and continue to confess everyday that Colin is healed and thank God for it whenever a doctors report comes in, or a challenge appears. I know, this is easier said than done, but my mother was given 6 mos to live because of stage 4 breast cancer and a 98% blockage in her heart and she confessed everyday and spoke to God over her situation and I will share this with you, she has been going strong for 8 years remission thus far, PRAISE GOD. I hope that this testimony encourages you and your family to keep pressing into the higher power and trust in him to wash Colin of all he is going through. He will look back on the stories you and your wife have of this time and be amazed at how he overcame it all. Best wishes to you, and your family. EVERYONE loves you Colin for being SO STRONG. Be Blessed!
