Drew had another appointment with Dr. Zeinomar this morning. Just as the doctor thought, Drew was not getting enough water and now his BUN levels are normal. In fact, almost all of the labs came back normal...except one. Of course! Something to do with Drew's thyroid. His T3 Free level was point 3 higher than it should have been. Drew has his 18 month checkup coming up and if his regular pediatrician wants to have more labs drawn in a month then it will be up to her. Otherwise there is nothing about which we need to be worried. Thank you, Jesus!
Drew still has not gained a lot of weight. For the past 3 months he's hovered around 19 to 20 pounds. Today his weight was 20 pounds and 7 ounces. Oh to have the metabolism of my son. Oh to have the self control that I envy in a soldier. Oh to not feel comfort in a box of Ho Ho's. I don't have any Ho Ho's right now. But if you'll excuse me, there's an unfinished carton of ice cream...
