Hello. I know its been a while, but our car accident in November slowed me down some, well actually alot. But anyway....
Hannah and I have been in Denver now twice. In April we spent 2 weeks there. Still no actual diagnosis, but we do know a little more. She definitley has an Immune Deficiency. Basically she has the immune sytem of a 90 year old. She has severe food and enviromental allergies. She is feed off of her pump only, 24 hours a day. she is on several medications, like magnesium, folic acid, I even add 1/8 tsp. of salt to her formula a day.
She is allergic to soy oil and corn oil. which is in everything! Not only alot of food, but also in some medicines, lotions, soaps, detergents, paper plates... etc.
She lost the rest of her hair. But has now got a full head of peach fuzz. which she is extremly proud of! We are seeing a team of immunoligist's in Omaha. She is trying a certain food, 1 at a time for 1 week. To rule out allergic reactions. turkey, peaches, and this week is carrots.
She gets tired easy so we use a stroller alot. but other than that She is a very normal, smart an ornery little girl. She turns a whopping 7 saturdy.
She is advanced in school... the girl is very smart! and has a wonderful outlook on life and her disabilities.
Brittany is almost 12 and stating at the new Jr. High next year. We are so excited! Her grades were mostly B's this year. She volunteers at the library and always has a book in her face. She loves to sing and is involved in every choir she can get to.
Ashley is also advanced in her school work this year. Reading and Art are her loved things to do. she carries around her sketch book and clay everywhere. She turned 9 this year.
Anthony turned 5 (while we were in Denver) and is starting kindergarden in the fall. He has the thickest red hair and need a hair cut at least once a month. lol. He loves his trucks and tractors, and fire trucks. and wants to grow up to fix big trucks like his JoeJoe.
Gotta go for now.
Love, Blessings, & Barefeet,
Beckie
