Good Luck Adam!


Adam is off early in the morning to get tubes put in his ears. You'll do great! We love you SO much and can't wait until you are feeling better and can play with Connor (I'll even make sure Connor doesn't pull your hair! LOL)

As for Mr. Connor-he is feeling lots better today. Doesn't want anyone to touch his tender port side, but much better than yesterday. The swelling is down by about half-so he still has some inflammation in there that the doctor wants gone by Monday, or they will have to do a test on him (putting dye thru him to see if the port has any leaks)

If he did have a leak-he would need an operation to get a new port-a-cath implanted-so we are very much hoping the shrinking continues.

We wait and watch and call them on Monday if he is still swollen. It looks like it is going to all get absorbed and be okay though. Thanks for all the prayers and reassurances!

We had to quit giving Connor the herbal treatment, it looked like it was making the OMS worse instead of better. (Oops) It enhances the immune system, so if his problem lies in the B-Cell area (like if he has too many) then enhancing his system to make more, is not going to help him. We are not sure if that is where his problems lie, but hope to find out soon.

Almost Friday! We are trying to plan a nice family weekend with the kids. Maybe head to Atlanta for the day Saturday? I'll let you all know what we decide to do. Be nice to go there for fun and not just doctor visits.

God Bless!

I hope Connor's swelling goes all the way down...I just can't believe that happened!

Before OMS Onset....

Connor was SO happy and interactive-then OMS struck at 15 months old and he changed overnight...
