The holidays have proven to be busy and restful all at the same time. The children love Christmas day and even got a couple of things they wanted... It has been wonderful having Trent home while campus has been closed for the holidays. The kids love playing and spending time with Daddy and Mommy loves having them "bug" someone else :)
Today Hannah had her appointment with the Asthma Imunoligist in Spokane. The test came back stating that Hannah does have the ability to fight infection and he believes that her body gets sick so easy simply because she was so small and early at birth. We are going to continue with "treating the issues" as they come and the hope is that as she gets older those lungs will grow and there will eventually be more good lung than bad. Until then we are going to try a new medication for the inflammation of her lungs, and two new inhalers in hopes that it will help them work more efficiently and be able to fight infection better. Hannah still has an appointment with the GI doctor next week to discuss how she is doing and where we go from here. Her empty study went well and it would seem the medication she has been taking to help her stomach empty properly is working. She still shows quite a bit of reflex even while on medication so I believe this will be the bulk of conversation next week. As she continues to reflux she continues to breath in that acidic fluid and this causes repeated damage to growing lung. I am not sure where we will go from here, but I know God leads us when it comes to Hannah.
The kids are continuing to enjoy their break from school and I am starting to count down the days til they return on Monday... :)
