Anyway...my parents, a.k.a "Grammie & Paw," spent this past weekend with us...and we had such a wonderful time! The weather was terrible, but Ethan still thoroughly enjoyed his play time with his pal, Paw, and Elise was loving her extra cuddles from Grammie....actually they both enjoyed lots of extra cuddles from Grammie!!
Well...Elise and I are going to Texas Childrens' Hospital tomorrow for a liver clinic appointment. I'm trying not to get nervous...because there are no indications that we will get bad news. I mean, her poops have never looked better, she's eating at least 30 oz per day, and she has no signs of jaundice in her skin or eyes. Peachy... right?? Well, in addition to her liver panel, I'm still asking for her vitamin levels to be drawn and for an ultrasound to be ordered. I want a complete abdominal ultrasound done so I can see things up close and personal...and hopefully rule out Ascites.
One last thing...I want to thank everyone who has sponsored Elise in the Liver Life Walk Houston 2012. The support is just overwhelming and means so much to us! We still have a little over a month before the event, which is scheduled for March 31st. David and I will be walking while Ethan and Elise ride along in the stroller. We are on the "TCH Leapin' Liver Team" which is being led by Elise's GI doctor/ hepatologist. The funds raised will be going to the American Liver Foundation to support research, advocacy, and education related to liver disease.
