Trick or treat

We had a real fun and eventful Halloween weekend. Friday night we went to a FL/GA themed Oyster Roast.

The Boys had a great time running around and playing with their friends, and Ted and I had a great time with our friends, having some adult conversation.... and a few adult beverages.
We were finally able to make a trip to the pumpkin patch.
It was slim pickings two days before Halloween but we were able to find a kinda warty one for $5.oo

We had to do a wardrobe change at the pumpkin Patch for two reasons.....

1. Kirby's outfit was a little to cumbersome to wear in the car

and

2. we ran into a friend at the pumpkin patch and Kirby wouldn't exit the car in his costume???

um... i guess he was embarrassed?

hahaha

Warty pumpkin

We met up with Cousin Margaret before heading our separate ways to Trick or Treat

First stop: Baba's House

Next Stop: Gigi and Pops

Roe with his friend Brody

And Finally Home!

On another note, i would like to fill in anyone who reads our blog on what is happening around here specifically with Roe,

We have been from Dr. to Dr. for the past 6 months, as you all know he was diagnosed with severe food allergies to Milk, soy and eggs.

This was happy news to us because we finally felt like we had a handle on what was going on with him and were able to do whatever it takes to get him better. However, it seems over the last 6 months things have not gotten better.

He has constant diarrhea, like 4-5 icky diapers daily, he drinks probably a gallon of liquids each day and has the wet diapers to match. He has what we believe to be headaches.

He was loosing weight for a time, but now we are back on the plus side, although still below the charts and less that we were at our 15 mo. appt.

Saturday when Ted was at the football game he began to struggle with his breathing.

Not gasping for air but definitely struggling, i decided to drive him to the fire station and have them take a look. Everything checked out fine but they were stumped at the very strange noise he was making with each breath.

It happened again last night and Ted and I deliberated taking him to the ER.

I was able to get him into the Dr. early this morning.

THANKS TO MY GOOD FRIEND LEAH, who works at the Dr's and has been helping us try and sort all of this out.

There are still a lot of unanswered questions but the good news is that we have an appointment at Nemours to go to a GI specialist.

baby steps

I have debated sharing this information, not knowing if it is to much info or if we should keep it private until we know more, but here's my thought.

Some of these symptoms may sound familiar to you and you may be able to point us in a direction we weren't thinking.

But mostly this is a call for prayer. Please lift up Roe in your prayers.

I KNOW that prayer works and whether the prayer is for healing, for God's will or for wisdom and knowledge for the Dr's that see him.

We will take it!

Thank you
