Izzi update...

Crohn's Disease Forum

Help Support Crohn's Disease Forum:

Ang,
Just thinking of you and Izzi. I am just having a chance to sit down and catch up. It has been a crazy week. I am looking for new schools for my kids. We had picked a charter school for them and they all hate it. Caitlyn we have pulled out and decided to home school. So now looking for a new school for my two middle kids. Sixth and third graders.
 
Awww, Ang, I hope Izzi's feeling better soon... I'd bet the fatigue is related to the beginning of the school year, I always remember it took my kids a few weeks to really settle into the new routine. But, certainly, always worth checking out with the ped or GI. :ghug:



Kim, good luck with the schools!!

AW Ang...I drank for you last night...not IBD related just pissy swim team BS and felt I needed to be there for you.

I sure hope the fatigue, headache, cough and whining are all related to just some stupid cold. She could also be fatigued because of the new schedule. It is tough going to school and having to be "on" all day..my oldest never napped but I remember the first weeks of Kindergarten she was exhausted and slept for over an hour when she got home. A few of my friends kids used to fall asleep on the bus. But I am right there with you wondering about all the things every little occurance could be. Just stay out of Dusty's corner and leave your eyelashes alone.

How is she today?

LMAO next time let me know-we can get drunk "together" and thanks for the support lol!!

I need to keep every eyelash-they are thin enough-but I can see me rocking and clicking knitting needles-plus they make a valuable weapon ;)

IDK yet-it is my 7 on (of 7 off 7 on midnights) -I just awoke and am getting ready to pick them up from daycare. I think this is part of the reason I have such OCD...I don't feel like their dad pays enough attention and I only get them 2 hours a day on my workweek-it's hard for me to assess them in 2 hours. :mad2:

Kim, I am so sorry your kids are unhappy at school---what a tough thing to deal with. I hope things settle for you soon!! :rosette2:
 
I hope Izzi's symptoms are clearing up and it's just allergies or getting into a routine. As we say in the South "I bet she's just plumb tuckered out!"

I am the same way with symptoms. Every one is a sign that something bad is going on(and Med MD doesn't help LOL). It is hard when they are out of your care for most of the day. I always start the school year with an email to the teachers. One thing I stress to them is that they see him more than I do, so they are my first line of defense. I give them a list of symptoms and ask them to let me know if they see any change in him.

Hugs to you!
 
Hi Farmwife,
We are using Florida virtual school program.it is a free program from the state of Florida. It is supposed to be good.
 
Yes! All of you keep out of my corner or I'll take to you with a knitting needle! Don't even think about ganging up on me either cause I wield a mean needle and can beat a rolling pin any day! :voodoo: <<<<That's me stabbing the doll with my knitting needle!

How is Izzi going Angie? Are the symptoms settling? I have everything crossed that they are! Bless her...:hug:

Dusty. xxx
 
She's the Same dusty. Doc offered us labs today but kids are in dayycare/at scool-i am planning on sleeping and cleaning my house. WE'LL think about labs tomorrow. Ty for asking.:rosette2:
 
Angie,

Sorry to hear Izzi's isn't feeling well :( :( I completely understand the OCD and I know now that my son is gone most of the day it is harder to know how he is feeling. He asked me yesterday if I was going to call him at college and ask about his poop. I said Yes of course I will! I need to know to move on with my day. :)

Kim, we were in Orlando and the schools in Florida are nuts. We sent our son to a Montessori school and pulled him out after 3 weeks. There are so many choices it is hard to find the right one. We had families in our neighborhood where every one of their kids were at a different school. The schools are all very specialized. If you are in the Orlando area I can help, otherwise hang in there and get to know people and ask around. There are good schools there, they are just very hard to find. Good luck hun :)

You know Cincinnati is pretty centrally located you all could come visit the hospital here and then stop by for some wine! (Sorry Dusty not so centrally located for you but we have a great airport.) Wish we could all meet for that glass of wine!

Tiff
 
Hmmm... if we include the Brits and those down under, Vegas would be centrally located! :banana: We could have a Poop Troupe weekend! :thumright:
 
I agree Mary! But I can't leave my kids that long and Dusty's are grown. I would totally chip in for your airfare Dusty! Is Chicago a better location??

I would love to get together!!!
 
Leave me on the farm. :ymad:
I can only imagine what would happen with all you in Chicago drunk off your behinds.:angry-banghead:
Oh wait I can.:yrolleyes:
Please don't drink and drive because I can picture:rolleyes:

crohnsinct yelling out the car window "Give me liberty or give me death".:yfaint: I just hope she's dressed.:eek:

Angie in the back seat crying because she's afraid her ex-husband will confused Izzy's suppository for a pill.:facepalm:

DustyKat will be the drunkest of them all. :yfrown:She at this time will be hopping down the interstate like a kangaroo.

Tiffany, Mary and Clash will be running after her yelling.:runaway: Come back kangaroo.:awe:


And y'all end up in jail because the cop that pulls you over will say, "let's go".
Well naturally y'all thought he meant he need to use the lou and decide he must need help.:poo:

And if I forgot anyone....... just be happy!!!!:eek:utahere:

Tesscorm I'm sorry to say is the driver. No drinking for you.


Sorry Angie we're hijacking AGAIN!:ymad:
Theirs just something about your threads.:sign0085:
 
:rof: :rof: :rof:

No friggin' way am I driving! :ymad: WTH, I'm going to get away from my responsibilities... and you're trying to add to them?!?!? Even in my little virtual world bubble?!?!? I'm unfriending you! :mad2:

And, Clash won't be running down the street yelling for Dusty... she'll be hanging out the car window yelling for her! (She's experienced at that you know...:eek:)

And, friend or not, you are absolutely NOT allowed to stay on the farm! We'll need your moonshine... and you WILL enjoy it! With or without the NG tube! :eek:
 
Do you remember my Canadian Aussie Brit with a southern drawl (throwing in a bit of East coast Italian) asking for a drink...

Hey y'all, I'm dang parched here, dio mio, if anyone's seen a blimey bubbler give me a hoy, eh?

Originally, meant it as a joke... thinking it may have been a premonition! :eek:
 
I don't drink alcohol.:ymad: It's against my religion. Also I need every brain cell I have.:lol2:

Well some one has to drive!!!:yrolleyes: Twiggy930 it's on you.:shifty-t:
Oh yes Clash will be running after Dusty. Who do you think has her keys.:sign0085:


I dare you to unfriend me:ymad: I'm the best thing that's ever happened to you!!!:cool2:


Just kidding, I'm very lonely, please don't unfriend me.
 
:lol: NG tube it is then! And, relax... the more you drink, the less you'll care about those brain cells! :ylol:

I think I'm afraid to unfriend you :eek: ...that rolling pin!! :eek:utahere:
 
:eek:Are you guys kidding me??? I miss this thread in two passes and when I finally get to it Farmwife has me in jail for helping a trooper poo!!! :yfaint:

Yeah, I'll definetely be hanging out the car window, I went for a run a couple a days ago but came back home after two minutes because I forgot something. I forgot that I despise running and I am so outta shape I can't run longer than two minutes!!!:hallo3: So I'll just hang out the window with my cam and film Dusty's kangaroo performance!! We gotta have something to post on you tube to raise the funds for bail. I can see the headlines now...Inebriated Poo Monger Parents Take Over the Streets of Chicago...with a little down under flare(farmwife get your mind out of the gutter I'm referring to Dusty's country of origin!!:lol2:) Or better yet Wine, Poo and Kangaroos!:shifty-t:
 
You forgot me! See ! U ladies said I could be in the club ...then you leave me out all the time. Plus, if u brought me we wouldn't have to worry about that pesky trooper....I have my own badge. ;)
 
Clash at least you get to go to jail and run after Dusty! I assume since I'm obviously not included in this little trip I shall just have to go and sulk ..... :ymad:
 
Well dearest Dutch941 you were in my daydream.
Who do you think the trooper was!:eek:
Right now your feeling VERY violated:sign0085: from what the women did to you in their drunken state.
Them thinking that prickly bush was the lou. You'll never be the same.:ymad:
 
So help me if any of you come at me with the tube....:ymad::ymad:
just know if I get a hold of it, :sign0085:
I'm really good at giving enemas now. I just saying.:eek:



My gosh Sascot who do you think is posting bail.:shifty-t:
 
haha....I didn't forget you guys, this wasn't my virtual bubble trip. I absolutely had you in mind Sascot to do all the fast talking to the local troopers, you think you can use a strong scottish brogue fluster the law or whip up some of that haggis???:thumleft: And Dutch you'll definitely be beneficial in helping crohnsinct pick out her tattoo, steering her towards the best parlor and away from the seedy places in her stupor!!:lol2:
 
And listen when they take us in stick to your forum name, kids latest lab results and number on the bristol chart of kids latest bm...might keep us all out of jail, probably not out of straight jackets but out of jail!!!
 
:shifty-t:Won't work. They'll think your druggies.
Send you to rehab and teach you a "new way".:cool2:
Dutch941-you'll probably have to stay in Jail.
Just don't pick up the soap.:eek:
 
Well Sascot or I aren't driving cause you Yankee nutters drive on the wrong side of the road!

Put me behind the wheel and Trooper Dutch will have me up against the wall with my legs spread before I can say Fair Dinkum!

As for the tube, they don't call me the enema queen at work for nothing! So just a word of warning...never, I mean never turn your back on me!
sarc.gif


Looks like you are designated driver Farmwife! :tongue:
 
Omg! I TRY to get back to my life and things deteriorate quickly here!

Sas - don't worry abt being left out!! She left me out too and then, as an afterthought, put me to work! At least, she cud hv said I'd been left behind because of my drunker stupor!

Dutch - Farmwife's reference to prickly bush! :eek: ...just a wee bit too close to a previous conversation abt thin, string roots and brothels! :lol: Can't even say more! :blush:
And, by the way, bending over for soap... Beware... There's a whole new meaning when the Poop Troupe is near!!!... flashlights, tongs, little plastic 'hats', bristol charts or the dreaded Farmwife or Dusty Saturday Night Specials! :eek:

Farmwife - don't u worry that pretty little head of yours abt the Tube!! :). Twiggy and I will bring the 6-fr size! Youre married to a big strong farmer!, this little tube will go down so easy! And you'll feel so good afterward! :rof:
 
Yikes...Tesscorm, I am staying away from you, Dusty, Farmwife and the tube!! There was just an online news article I read about the tube, seems some fraternity bros. from a college in Tenn. were using the tube for alcohol enemas and one ended up hospitalized. Details were sketchy when the article was posted, some students were denying the use of alcohol enemas, not sure of the outcome. As if beer pong, quarters and funneling were enough in the college wildlife!!!
 
OMG !!! You tell me this NOW when Stephens away for the weekend staying at a friends dorm!!! I'd better go check our tube inventory! :eek:

:shifty:Wow you scare me now! I mean it. SCARED and a bit freaked out.



As far as calling me pretty. Thank you.:ybiggrin:
 
Poor Angie can you imagine her reaction when she reads this.



Oh To Ms. Dusty..............................
I believe you. Which is WHY I will be her on my FARM and not in Chicago. I don't even want to see pictures. I will not be apart of the newspaper article!!!!!!
 
Hahaha Tesscorm, I'm sorry!!! I'll remain quiet on the enema subject as long as I don't have to drive or run down Dusty the kangaroo in the middle of downtown Chicago!!!
 
Farmwife, you aren't fooling us we all know you will be the one writing the newspaper article!!!
 
Mercy me! I turn my back on you girls for a few hours and you go to hell in a handbasket! Is this what you were referring to Dusty when you said sometimes we need to take a break?!

Poor David..been so quiet on the subject. I suspect he is also crying in a corner somewhere about being left out.

And oh yes, poor innocent Izzy...will have this all as part of her journal.

Hey I am excited..I just got drunk AND a Tatt! Shopping for my design right now!
 
I predict by the end of the trip we all end up with tats....a cool tat of the crohns ribbon!!! You might just end up with a navy anchor or I love mom tat as well!
 
oh. my.
I was feeling all guilty when I logged in because I have been having health issues and haven't been on in forever.
Then Dusty's thank you post moved me, almost to tears.
I was pleased to see my thread showing new posts (it's like finding a letter from an old friend in your mailbox); and then curious as to how I had missed an entire page of posts.

There are tears of laughter streaming down my face.

D-I am hereby starting an airfare fund, as we wouldn't have as much fun in Chicago without you. I will be sure not to turn my back-never had an enema, but not interested in trying.

FW-d ex WOULD mess it up...he complained that I never "taught" him how to comb Iz's hair...really??

CICT-drunk while picking out tat-scary combo IMHO! Good luck!!

can't even remember all of the posts...you are all crazy and it would be so much fun to get together!!!
I am taking Izz for monthly labs today. Still coughing, but so is her brother.
Will try to catch up on the forum tonight while at work...keep it up, ya'll; I haven't laughed so hard in weeks!!!
 
Ang.....hope izzies labs go well.....Matt s recent labs still a problem...dr pulled him off the 6mp. Wants to see how he does on pentasa alone...makes me very nervous....I'm so worried about the stress of another flare up..on him and on me..sometimes you feel like you're at you're breaking point you know? I love him not having to take 6 mp but worried about the result of that.....
Crohn'sinct...?good luck with that tat! Pictures please! Also....I thought of the symbol when I researched my tat but it is shared with other disorders! Why can't they have their own? Also..I thought it was better to commerate his perseverance using the hockey symbol rather than to use the disorders symbol......
 
Last edited:
Ugh, Dutch...from one he!! to another. Glad that he is off of the 6mp (we haven't yet tried it...I was scared) but it's awful that you can't enjoy it when he's feeling good...just waiting for a flare.
I have a friend that does well on Asacol alone...hope this is the case for Matt and Pentasa! :)

Completely agree about the "crohn's purple ribbon". It's also the symbol for every other disease that doesn't have it's own. I like the thought about perseverance-helps to reiterate that our kids have the disease, not the other way around.

We did the Utica CCFA take steps walk this weekend-it went well and I would like to get more involved next year.
 
Hope her labs go good. We go tomorrow for a pouchoscopy. Not fun. At least my only prep is an enema in the morning. :eek:

Too bad I don't have these enema experts here in Michigan. I haven't given too many of them, but then again 1 is 1 too many to me. This was a very entertaining thread. I got my share a laughs today. My kids just think I am weird laughing out loud by myself.

Dutch So sorry your sons meds aren't working right. I hope he stays well.

Dutch - I hope all goes well with your boy! I completely get being happy about less meds but worried about less meds! Ugghh!

Angie - hope the labs bring good results!!! :)

Mary - don't worry... I've had many a laugh all by myself! :lol:
 
How did Izzi's labs go Angie? :hug:

I hope Rowan's scope went well Mary. :hug:

Oh man Dutch, I so know that feeling! Ya damned if ya do, ya damned if ya don't! :voodoo:

I so hope all goes well for all for kiddoes, bless them. :ghug:

Labs took a while to come back but saw them tonight...crp is back up over 6 (was <1 last month :(((). Her hemoglobin is a bit low and platelets are high, which is our new normal. BUN and creatnin are stable and cystatin c (to determine peds gfr) was a sendout...not back yet.
She is a bit tired and c/o a bit of pain lately, so I should start thinking of our next plan of attack soon. I must have looked crestfallen at the CRP-her doc apologized for looking it up tonight. #happyinmybubble
 
Oh dear, that's a shame. Hope the CRP comes back down and the pain goes away!! Happy bubble, happy bubble :)
 
Oh man Angie. :hug:

Wishing, hoping and praying for nothing but the best for darling Izzi. :heart:

Dusty. xxx
 
TY to kimmidwife for thinking of us...a quick update!
Izz is doing wonderfully!!
The beginning of November marked 6 months on Tacrolimus and Bactrim for her. Her CRP is <1 (was in the 60's) and her kidney function is on the high side of normal, but steady for now. We are so fortunate!! She occasionally has belly pain and has an accident once a week or so-her doc tells me it is functional after her colon being so damaged for so long. Her scope a few months back still showed chronic inflammation but I'll take it!!
She is probably due for another one soon.
She has started kindergarten and LOVES it...her teacher has told me that if she continues to do this well she will likely skip a grade. :)
I have decided to return to school...I would like to either be a Physicians Assistant or Nurse Practitioner. I am busy getting ready for this...it will be a tough few years but I am excited about the wide range of opportunities for jobs and the higher income will help me to provide for my kids as a single mom.
I used to catch up on the forum at work but have limited access these days...and life at home is somewhat crazy!! I think of you all often...and I just visited "much ado" for a belly laugh...TY to all for that!
I just spent 10 minutes resizing these things in photobucket...and I swear they are even bigger. I give up. Mods, feel free to make them smaller lol!

ANGIE!!!!!!!!!! I am soooooo glad you posted. I was away for awhile with family issues got back and then back off for hurricane and couldn't find mention of you anywhere and then when you escaped the whole what you look like game on Much Ado I was getting paranoid that something really awful happened to you and everyone just didn't want to bring up your name. Either that or you had met some tall dark ridiculously handsome guy who was a wine distributor who loved to cook and they were all jealous and erased you frrom their memories.

So glad to hear things are going well and that you have a new exciting plan. I think you would make a fabulous health care provider whether you decide nurse or PA. Go for it Girlfriend!

Oh and seriously?! Those pics of your kids are to die for! For some reason that photog's name sounds very familiar. Where do you live? I think she did some "love story" shots for my niece...yeah that's right I am old enough to have an niece getting married...don't rub it in!
 
:rof::rof::rof:
and TY. She is from Camden, NY...but we are near Syracuse and Utica. I live for her photo sessions...she is by far my fave.
 
So glad to hear all is well!!! And the pics are so adorable!!!

And, I'm with Crohnsinct... think you would be fabulous as a nurse practitioner or physician's assistant! Go for it!!!! :thumright:
 
Angie ! So great
To hear from you ! And even better that izz is doing so well ;)
The pics are amazing - such beautiful children!
Best of luck with your new schooling endeavor :)
 
WOW, WOW, WOW Angie!!! What a fab update! :):):):):):)

I am so happy to hear that Izzi is continuing to do so well and blitzing them at school as well! What a champion! :soledance::soledance::sole dance:

And you Angie! I'm gobsmacked! :ywow: Not because you aren't capable! :lol: But because you have the vision, drive and compassion and are so darned accomplished! Good luck with your future endeavours! :medal1:

And last but by no means least your babies...what absolutely stunning pics. :hug: They surely are beautiful children and it is no wonder to see why you are so very proud of them. :D:D:D

Dusty. xxx
 
Glad to hear all is well with all of you. The kids are so cute. I love the new pictures. Glad to hear izzys doing well and by the looks of her is off the predisone. Good luck with school. I am thinking of doing the same but continuing my education in nutrition/dietician. Such a good update. You have made my day. Happy Thanksgiving we all have a lot to be thankful for this year.
 
Great update on Izzi! I hope that things continue to go well! Wow for her with school too! Skipping a grade!

As for you! Kudos to you for going back to school. You are very courageous for going back, but YOU CAN DO IT!

The pics are incredible!
 
So great to hear such a wonderful update! And the pictures are amazing. I wish I lived closer, I would use your photographer.

It sounds like school is going well for Izzi too. Skipping a grade! Maybe she'll grow up to be a Pediatric G.I. and she can help all these little ones. :)

As for going to school, you already know so much about medicine you might as well have the degree right?

I'll be praying that next scope continues to show improvement. I agree with Mary, lots to be thankful for this year!
 
Happy to hear Izzi is doing well. Smart girl, like her Mom. The medical profession will be a better place when you finish up your degree. Good Luck! The pics are awesome, thanks for sharing,
 
So while she is still doing fantastic, something just struck me.

She often tells me her butt hurts. I have assumed FOREVER it's because she isn't wiping effectively enough, so I clean her well and apply cream. The last time I did, she complained that I never apply the cream where it hurts (helllo drama!). I am wondering if she is having internal rectal pain.,..can anyone relate???
 
Thanks for the update Angie...:hug:...it is so fab to hear all is still going well...

But I'm not sure about the rectal pain. We haven't had issues with the large bowel here but I don't think you are wrong is suggesting that she may be feeling some internal pain. Has she ever described it as being 'inside'?

Dusty. xxx
 
I have that problem with my daughter - for years I put the cream on to try and help her bottom pain, only for her to eventually tell me it doesnt' help because it's not where she is sore. :eek2:. Still we put cream on every night - I think it's more a comfort thing now - just on the off chance the cream might help :lol:.
I think it's an age thing, that they can start to distinguish between pain on the skin and pain from further inside. Amy now says the pain is deeper inside.
Why don't you ask Izzi at a time when it is sore. Ask her to point exactly where - put some cream on there and then ask - is it sore where I am touching or is it further inside.
 
that's a good idea. I was hoping to save her from a digital rectal exam from the doctor if I can help it. Is it wrong to hope she has pain today so I can find out quicker? Lol! She has never actually said it's inside but I didn't think to run my finger around the outside to see if she can pinpoint the pain better. I usually try to touch her as little as possible because I know it's already sore.
 
Angie,
My little one often complains of the same thing. I was worried about an internal fistula or something that you can't see. When I take her to the doctor in two weeks I plan to ask about it. I would definitely ask your doctor about it.
 
I have no useful advice Ang, but i'm so glad to hear that Izz is doing well !
:soledance:

How is school going for you?
 
Rowan often use to complain of rectal pain. I thought I was butt burn but it is inside. For some reason once we started spraying her off with warm water it seemed to help the discomfort. When I research it it stated that the warm causes the blood to come to the surface more to promote better circulation and therefore quicker healing. Idk if that is what has happened or if it is a mental thing? Granted I am sure Rows pain is because of the liquid poo, frequency and how acidic it is. It also improved after we started giving Omeprozole again to cut the acid and psyillium to make them more formed. Are her stools formed now?
 
As far as I know they are formed. :shifty: she shuts the door to the bathroom now lol. She needs labs this week...I am not sure if I am going to let him examine her or have him do the follow up scope he was planning on doing and do both at once while she is out.
 
We chatted...I told him I am not eager to get her rescoped (he said he is well aware, as otherwise I would have been blowing up his phone about it lol). I told him I believe that stress may be a factor. He asked Izz if she worried to which she replied yes. He asked what she was worried about and she said "I'm concerned that my dad is going to kill my brother" OMG I about died. She said "He's mayhem, y'know, and my dad gets really mad at him".

I think I need to get this poor girl back in therapy ASAP. My poor worrier.

Her GI texted me that labs were "normal" but no values except CRP at 2.5 (up from .6 last month).

No complaints of rectal pain since my last post...so we are doing well. :)
 
I'm so happy that she's continuing to do well! And too funny about her worries!!!! What a sweetheart! :heart:
 
Thanks for the fab update Angie! :):):) Warts and all! Izzi is a hoot! :lol:

Onwards and Upwards!
Dusty. xxx
 
Love the labs and lack of pain
May it continue.
As far as door closed....
We have a rule close the door finish but leave the contents for mom to inspect when your finish.
We aslo use the Bristol chart ( kiddie version) for when he is at school.

We are working on an app for his iPod which logs date and time automatically for him for bm's then he just pick Bristol number and if there was blood.
 
Izz is still doing well...no recent complaints of pain...but her brother (2) has abdominal pain that has him writhing and screaming! It's intermittent, and he is also vomiting so I am sure that it is a bug, but how do you turn off that IBD parent switch? Feeling terrible for the little man, though...poor kiddo! This is the second day of it...if it continues tomorrow I will call the doc to be sure.
 
Johnny's little sister had a weird period like that this summer. She described her "pain" like a UTI, which the Dr. treated her for but then when the culture came back negative they called and told us to take her off the antibiotics. She then started vomiting. Wouldn't eat much for 2 weeks and complained of tummy pain on and off. Dr. thought she was constipated and it backed her up, put pressure on her bladder and then she got a intestinal bug. Seems like way too many coincidences to me. But she got better and since is gaining weight and growing but I know that feeling.

I do think that him having that much pain with the stomach flu would be strange. I know at 2 it is hard to distinguish between pain and intense nausea so maybe that is it. But I did consider asking them to do a fecal cal on Brooke if she hadn't gotten better.

Hope it is just a bug and he is feeling better soon. ((((Hugs))))
 
UGH! Right there with you with O's younger sister. When you find the switch let me know where it is.
 
Yep, my hearts sinks any time Amy mentions sore tummies. Hope your son is feeling better today!
 
Oh man Ang! Every time one of my girls mentions stomach discomfort of any time, there's that little nagging voice in the back of my head!! I hope it's nothing and he feels better soon!
 
Man, I know that feeling. I am an absolute wreck when any of the kids are sick...especially Matt, just due to the UC and fear it will flare. My wife has to constantly remind me...remission or not, kids still get sick......so I sweat it out and so far it has ironed itself out. Have to keep reminding ourselves that headaches, stomach aches, bugs, and flu s are still going to happen .....
 
came to the er...he was shrieking in pain this am. US was inconclusive as aappendix wasn't visualized...labs normal but 2 enlarged lymph nodes on us so drinking for ct now. or trying...threw up the first cup of contrast. fortunately the Er doc is a friend...didn't have to fight any battles. :) she said she thought they were putting in another iv when he was screaming in pain...no one was touching him . :( he's making me cry today! anyone care to deliver wine lol?

Someone needs to come up with a wine bottle bouquet, instead of flowers a bottle of wine, glass and opener. They could carry it in the gift store :D

Hope all works out for you little guy and he is pain free soon. Thinking of you.
 
NO WAY! Gosh I hope he is feeling better soon and they figure this thing out.

Mary: nice avatar...much more you than that sweet angelic woman!
