Speedbump.......

I called this update speedbump, because Its like we sped to another diagnosis with Jimmy's latest illness......The culture showed yeast in his urine(?) this is strange, but they put him on an antifungal med. now for 10 days. How yeast got in his urine is unknown....In the meantime he goes in tomorrow for an MRI of his brain to make sure all is well there. He has been cranky and it may all be just his patience has run out with being poked at and prodded by Drs. and nurses. I hope this all clears up and he can get a break soon. He is normally a sweet child. But, when he is sick its different, real different . Because he cannot communicate, he gets angry and we dont want that......so we may be seeing a phychiatrist for him to share some idea's on how to deal with his behaviors when he is sick. Hopefully he'll stay healthy but in this world of germs and diseases sometimes thats not as simple as it seems. So, he may have to be on something like a mood stabuilizer or something.... Jokingly I said to the pediatrician today, there are about 10 people I can think of in our family that need them right now. lol. But we really need to help Jimmy big time. He is getting so big. He'll be 16 the day after Chriostmas but in his mind he is 4. Well, on to tomorrow and the MRI. I'll post after. Love, Lin N Fam.~*
