Davin's Drama


OK no surprise that Davin has health issues. I just feel so bad for him quite often. The current thought is that his allergies are exacterbating his TRAPS which in turn is causing recurrent sinus infections. Although we have treated his allergies aggressively, the Md's seem to think that even the slightest allergen will cause his other symptoms to flare. His eyes look like he has cataracts, but it is actually inflammation of the eye. When it covers a lot, he has difficulties seeing, but once the inflammation goes down he can see better. He still is sensitive to light so I bought him some sunglasses today with hopes that he will spend less time hiding out in the house or in doors. For now we are adding two more medications that will hopefully help him get over this hump.

I'm so sorry, Jen. He looks awful! I saw Dalva yesterday and she was asking about you (: I'm glad that (from the looks of it) your summer has been pretty good. I hope to see you around - if not, we'll have to plan a lunch or a playdate or something!

I cannot wait til you get out to Maryland and I can only imagine that feeling is one hundred fold for you. You are amazing and I love you. Thanks for always sharing your stories--you're a great inspiration to me.
