We have news!

We saw Dr. N. today about Xander's hypothyroid issue. Her reply: "I don't think he ever had one."

?!?

The blood results we posted she confirmed were dead on normal. He's a little delayed in his growth, but then again he'll likely catch up as he gets older. We'll be seeing Dr. N. in December for a follow up. The good news, he'll never need to take the thyroid meds ever again. Once we're through with the INH for the latent TB infection, he'll be able to enjoy a pill-free life.

Of course, Donna and I are stoked. How this was missed is not understood, but we're nurses kids and we follow up on things. It pays to keep asking questions.

So now it's off to sleep. Work tomorrow and then another weekend. Hard to believe it has almost been 3 months since we first got to meet him.

Yay! I'm so happy for you guys. {{big hugs}}You really are a blessing in his life. (No surprise to me, as you two are quite a blessing in my own life!) And I'm sure he's a blessing in yours as well.
