Our big trip is finally here. We are taking Sam to the Cincinnati Center for Eosinophilic Disorders at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. This opportunity is a huge blessing for Sam and we are hopeful they will be able to secure a diagnosis for us and help manage his problems better. Here is a summary of our week-
Sunday- clear liquids only all day, laxatives and 3 enemas before bed
Monday- meet with GI doctor at 8:30, undergo upper and lower endoscopy under anesthesia at 12:30. After that he can eat!
Tuesday- meet with allergist, undergo prick testing and have food patches placed on his back
Wednesday- no medical appointments
Thursday- Follow up with GI doctor to review pathology results
Friday- Follow up with allergist and nutritionist on patch test results
This is a huge undertaking for us to bring our whole family on this trip. Thankfully Jason’s brother has very graciously invited us to stay with them- I hope they won’t regret it as we are quite the family circus. Please pray for Sam’s safety to undergo the procedure and that he will be consolable through all of this testing. Please pray that the doctors will have wisdom to help Sam be able to eat and grow and be a happy, healthy little boy!
