...

Today we have another appointment with the specialists at Primary Childrens Hospital. Yesterday I took Kyle to our local hospital for more bloodwork (it's weird you go to the hospital lab for bloodwork, in CO we always went to places like LabCorp, etc...).

Kyle's poor little arms are so bruised up. The phlebotimist tried to find a vein that was not so bruised. She found one, but couldn't get to it and had to dig. Ugh! The digging is always so painful. I had to cover Kyle's eyes. She called for help, but finally got it.

I'm hoping for good news at the doctor today. Kyle is hoping his blood sugars will get back to normal so he can get off his low carb diet. It really is hard to find things he can/will eat that are low carb. He is tired of beef jerky and string cheese.

And, crossing our fingers, we have our house under contract. Wouldn't you know we got the call on the way home from the hospital with Kyle last week. It is definitely a bad market to sell, so I wouldn't recommend unless you have to. But grateful, if this works out, that we can move on and get a house here for our family.

Wow what a Emotional roller-coster
your family has been on the last few weeks.
We all hope that Kyle's blood sugar gets back to normal.
Big hugs Donna

I really hope your house sells without a glitch. I know full well how stressful it is to sell your house, at a loss, from another state, just so you can move on to the next place in your life. It may make you sad now, but down the road you'll just be glad it's over with.

I am so glad that Kyle is on the mend. What an experience that you'll never forget. Reading your blog truly inspires me to be a better person and appreciate what Heavenly Father has given me. I hope when I face my trials that I can be as strong as you.

I am glad that your house in Colorado is under contract!!

Man, talk about a rough month for you guys. Poor Kyle. Knowing how it is trying to find a vein (from Weston) that breaks my heart. I will be crossing my fingers that the house goes through!
