Alex and Maddy

Monday, November 12, 2007

Alex is still hanging in there. He cannot tolerate any formula. As soon as we give him any he is crying and hunched over in pain. I made a sugar water solution similar to Pedialyte. He is tolerating that so we haven't had to go back to the ER. His blood sugar is holding. Now to wait and see how long his body can go without "food". I am scared to put him on a scale. Anyway, we are home and just enjoying a quiet morning. This will give me time to get ready for our trip to Cincinnati.​
Keep Praying for Buggy.

We are home. The poor dr's here don't know what to do with Alex. They look at me like I am crazy! We are hoping not to have to go back. If Alex can keep his formula down and his blood sugar stays okay we will stay here. If he starts throwing up again or his blood sugar drops we have to go back. I am glad we went when we did though. By the time we got there his blood sugar was down to 51 and he was starting to feel pretty bad. A bunch of his blood work is out of whack, but we will leave that puzzle for Dr. Putnam to figure out. We aren't sure if he is sick or just having eosinophili​c issues.Anyw​ay, Alex is sleeping. Pray for him to start feeling better. I will keep you updated.

I am on my way to take Alex to the ER. He has been throwing up and is starting to get dehydrated and his blood sugar is dropping. I'll update when we get home...
