A Step Backward Again--May 26, 2012

Today was a great day for the little guy overall--lots of fun on the playground, playing outside water games with his sister and picnics of breakfast, lunch and dinner on the back porch.  Thank goodness for the good times.  Peanut dosing, once again, was not so pleasant.  He is taking 2 medications to help with acid in his stomach now, and he has each in the morning at different times before the dose.  He ate a great lunch and willingly took his dose.  Today it only took 15 minutes for him to say he was going to be sick.  He was able to walk around and hold it off for another hour before everything came right back up.  It was very upsetting to him, but then you could tell he felt remarkably better.  He asked for a yogurt smoothie within 5 minutes!  I talked him out of having that so soon, but then he was a bundle of energy for the rest of the day.  So the million dollar question is....how much is enough?  There is no answer as to when or if his body will ever accept it, so when should the decision be made to soldier on or throw in the towel?  I pray each day I will know when the time is right.

  1. How long does this study go on? What happens when he enters kindergarten? Do you time his does for at home hours in the evening?
