Parker's visit to the GI on Monday was a plus in the fact that his liver now seems to be in normal range, but the GI was very concerned with the continued weight lose. Because of this, he ordered a number of blood test which included a few more allergy test, to be completed with a follow up visit scheduled on the 12th of July. Well, I received a call yesterday afternoon from Dr. Sanjay (the doctor himself, not the office staff) and Parker's blood work come back with a number of concerns, as well as he is allergic to everything they tested him for (these in addition to all the items found last week - shrimp, wheat, egg whites, egg yolks, cows milk and soybeans, macadamia nuts, almonds, shell fish and peanuts). The doctor is very concerned and has ordered Parker to go in for an endoscopy on Tuesday, July 6th. This out patient procedure will be done at Florida Hospital for Children. He will have to be put totally under. They will go in through the throat and down in the tummy area and take good look at all his organs and intestines. Once we have some results regarding the procedure I will let you know.
We have had such a great few days. Our nephew, Josh, got here on Thursday and will be staying until Tuesday (that is if Parker doesn't scare him off). Yesterday he went to work with Justin and did some golfing while Justin worked. Once Justin got off work they went and took a look at baseball stadium and then headed to Brevard Community College to take a look around. Today, Josh, Parker and I headed out early to hit the beach. From there we went to Ron Jon's. Josh had never been. When we pulled up to the place he was amazed. He said he had just pictured it to look like an old surf shack. Once we left there we headed home for Parker and Josh to swim. After they got done swimming they headed out to hit some baseballs. We wrapped up the day by having mom and dad over for some ribs on the grill and baked potatoes.
For those of you who think Parker never talks, just ask Josh what he is like in his own environment. Parker is never silent. Today Josh told him that he asks more questions then any one he knows and he is in awe that he never stops....Parker is always on the move. Poor Josh can't even go to the shower with out Parker having to know where he is. I love it!!!!!
Tomorrow is the 4th of July and we are having a cookout with some friends and family. It will be such fun. Nothing is better then friends, family and food....hahaha. Hope you all enjoy your 4th!!! I will chat with you again soon.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY USA.......
