Luke finally stopped vomiting on Thursday. Late Friday I realized that his appetite was back. He was sitting on my bed watching Mickey Mouse, and I was trying to rock Lexi to sleep to no avail. She was crying pretty loud and Luke was trying to tell me something. He got frustrated and said, "Is she gonna stop?" I told him she would just give me a minute. She continued to scream and he continued to tell me something, which I could not understand. Finally he stood on the bed and yelled, "I'M A HUNGRY BOY!!!!!" He has been eating normal ever since and catching up on his sleep.
Luke did have the stomach flu, which we found out for sure on Tuesday at the pediatrician's office. On Thursday he had his biweekly blood test, and we did not hear from the nephrologist, which means his levels are good to continue the prograf. Also, on Thursday, Lexi received her four month shots. Thursday was a fun day..... The four month appointment went well for Lexi and of course Sean and I ended up discussing Luke at Lexi's appointment. Yes, Lexi tends to get over looked, but when it comes to doctor's offices that is probably how she would prefer it.
Luke woke up this morning with golf ball size eyes again, so he is back on the diuretic as of 11:30 this morning. We hope relief comes quickly and pray for an end to this frustrating and vicious cycle.
The photos are of Luke hanging by his "sick couch" where he spent most of his time with the flu, and Lexi gearing up for Easter.
Please pray for Luke to continue to be strong and breeze through whatever may come next.
I continue to pray for you all. My prayer is that Luke get better, that a cure is found, and that God continue to bless you with the strength and positive attitude that you need to fight this battle. Thinking of you. Aunt Julie
