A tale of that wacky world of infertility that has now spiraled into the fascinating world of Guatemalan adoption and now... Parenting a child who's smile lights up the world, has a laugh that would drive the meanest person to hysterics and who also happens to have a genetic deletion at 16p11.2.

Sorry I've been MIA
Been going through my (hopefully) last go around with testing before my appointment with the world renown Dr. Castells. I had emailed her asking what tests she'd like to see prior to my coming up there since I am doing this trip out of pocket and would rather have my testing done and paid for by insurance.
So my list is as follows....
Blood Work
24 Hour Urinalysis
Bone Marrow Biopsy
Bone Scan
CT Scan (with and without contrast)
Skin Punch (can't wait to get these fucking stitches out already).
Now we wait for the results (bone scan normal) and we have our appointment at the end of May.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now on to the important things... Dylan
OMG he's getting so big! I can't believe he's going to be 4 soon. He amazes me every day with his intelligence, his beauty and his humor. Just when I think I can't possibly love him more... I realize I do.
Today we had our final meeting for IEP services. He's going to receive speech and behavior therapy. He's starting a new day care center and then a week later will begin to receive his services. I'm a total basket case. I think the transition will be harder on me than on him.
The teachers at his new day care center are heartbroken. I can't say I blame them.

Yikes, those tests sound scary to me. I hope your appt goes well.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Dylan is going to be four! I hope the transition is smooth.
Any chance you will share a pic of the big boy?
