Yesterday I rec'd a voicemail from the lab at Riley. I returned the call late knowing that they'd have to call me back. Well this morning they called, Sunshine's genetics test showed an unusually high level of amino acids and they now need a blood test to confirm and test further. Yipee. This is NOT going to be fun at all. I'll take him to the local hospital tonight to get it done. I may have to wait until tomorrow morning depending upon when we get back. I spoke with Dr. S's nurse L yesterday, they finally took into consideration that he won't take a liquid med and called in a pill seroid for him. At this point the poison ivy is clearing up. I guess I'm wondering if the steroids in his neb would do the same as the ones he takes orally. Hum...something to question next visit. We will need to see them next week after his apt at Riley. I'm anxious to hear the results. I'm really impressed with the neuro doc that we were assigned to. Helpful and knowlegdeable beyond all belief. Now if I can just get a resp doc that will do the same. I want to know if Sunshine will always have asthma. He was diagnoised at 6 mo old and has been struggling ever since. Smiley was diagnoised at 1 month old and has only had one attack. It seems that he may have grown out of it as most kids do.
Duck is already off to school, probably pulling into the drive about now. We are going to pick up some rain barrels that we found for $5 each. I think I'm going to get 4, maybe 5. Since I'm going to plant the corn on the opposite side of the yard next year, I will need to water them too! The beans are coming up well, I picked all the pumkins the other day, I'm waiting to see if the new shoots produce anything before I pull the plant. The only thing that is producing now is the peppers. I will finish pulling the tomatoe plants and put all the corn stalks in the compost later this week. My compost bin is full, I will need to get some straw and coke, in my research, this will help the compost process work faster. I'm looking forward to canning the pumpkin, I've gotten rid of almost all of it at this point. We also made some VERY GOOD salsa the other day. I'm thinking that I'm going to can some great norther beans and rice and them pour the salsa on top. That sounds yummy for some reason. I'm going to make more beans soup tonight, I think I need to run out to S's for more canning jars. I'm nearly out and my selves are full of food, but I can't let what I have left go to waste. I will also take her some spaghetti and chili. I do wish Duck had not taken the truck, I could've done that while he was gone after my bible study. I guess that will give me time to take care of the bean soup. I still haven't gotten around to the potatoe soup, it requires a lot of time and I'm not read to sit down and do it all. I will do my best to do it on Monday.
Well I need to get off of here and get ready for company.
Toodles..
Katy
