It seems like ages since I've posted. I'm weary.

DS's blood clotting problem has dropped significantly. From a high into the 8s, when normal is in the 1s, down to the 3s. Still not back where it should be but the crisis has lessened about hemorrhaging. He still hasn't started back with PT which concerns us. His appetite is down, but not b/c of any swallowing issues. DS has lots of complaints about pain in the back and legs, but the nurse says that it is highly unlikely, given his blood readings, that there is any concern about a clot. I think that the pains may be due to inactivity b/c of the blood issues and b/c he can sit/lay in only certain ways b/c of protocols of not breaking a certain angle in the hips until the surgery is past a certain date. He see the surgeon next week.

DBGD went for the final test to determine if she has CF last Tuesday, the sweat test. Unfortunately, she was unable to generate enough sweat for them to do the test. They'll test again at the beginning of August. More worry.

Dh's health issues have been tweaked, which is not surprising considering all the stress he's had to deal with lately.

That's about the summary of the important doings around here. I wish I were free of mind and time to be able to get back into the swing of things here.

For those of you dealing with health issues, you're in my heart and sending lots of healthy vibes your way.

For everyone - lots of good wishes and many thanks for your continued support.

Make it a great day!
