So TRUE....

Don't think of organ donation as giving up part of yourself to keep a total stranger alive. It's really a total stranger giving up almost all of themselves to keep part of you alive. ~Author Unknown

Doctors Visit...

Today we went to see our local GI doctor (whom we LOVE).. It's been about a month since our last appointment because life's been a little crazy! Devin lost another 2 pounds... 6 total since the end of February.. NOT good.. and a little concerning.  Tomorrow we will send off some stool studies and blood work and go from their.

We will begin by look for...

  • mal-absorbtion (although he has solid to semi-solid stool every two days)
  • celiac disease (again he eats EVERYTHING under the sun with NO belly pain, diarrhea, vomiting)
  • or possibly a fast metabolism from the ADHD..
I am praying he is just going to be a skinny kid because honestly his health has NEVER been more stable.. (I pray I don't regret writing that)

I again ask you to continue to pray for the kids in the transplant community.. One precious little girls passed on this week.. Please pray for her family as they return home to lay her to rest.  Pray for two sweet little girls who are battling infections.. and pray for sweet Eme as she enjoys her time at home with her family.. May her summer be filled  with good times!!!
