Brynne Update

So we're in the hospital again. We came in Saturday night to the ER because she was vomiting, etc and seemed to be doing the same as she did before we came in March. We had a cookout at our house on Saturday and left both sides of the family to clean up the mess...sorry guys!

So the main question is...What's going on? Well, we don't know. We do know that she does not have cystic fibrosis. THANK YOU LORD! Our pediatrician and gi specialist are working well together and have brought in an immunologist. He had decided to run A LOT of tests, mostly blood tests. So she's been stuck a few times but if we can find out what's causing all this it'll be worth it. On Friday, she will have an upper & lower gi and they will biopsy the intestines to see if MAYBE there's something in there that's causing all the fun stuff. Most of the other test results should be back today.

She's in a great mood and smiles alot! They took her off IV fluids to see if she can maintain her weight and hydration levels on her own. Please pray that she does.

Please pray for our doctors, nurses, technicians, etc...they're trying to figure it out and have been really really good to us.

Also, please add Claire Gill to your prayer list...she's 7 weeks old and has been our next door neighbor for the last couple of days. It's a small world because I used to work with her mother!

Thank you all for all your prayers, calls, meals, cards, emails...EVERYTHING! We are truly blessed and love you all.
