We had a very good appointment with a pediatrician this afternoon.  They’re not going to put Willpower on any more antibiotics because they want to culture his stool to see what is giving him diarrhea.  His eyes and sinuses appear to be much better tonight, but he’s still out of energy.  We’re giving him Pedialyte to prevent dehydration, as he lost an ounce of body weight between yesterday morning and this afternoon.   The doctor was very attentive and communicated well and they actually finally had all of his records together.  She looked at his immune system tests and addressed our concerns.

Because he’s had so many problems, we are going to have more regular appointments with our pediatrician.

So now we’re trying to collect as much diarrhea from him as we can to put into four little jars to take to the lab.  Parenting is so much fun.
