Just read the comment above and I kid you ...Oh man. Just read the comment above and I kid you not the other day thought the exact same thing. Beth I am so sorry this is going on. I wish I could fix it all. I will cry out to God on you and Mannys behalf. Do you need anything? My friend told me that having medical kids and doing hospital stays we get PTSD, a way of our brains protecting itself. I told my doctor what she said and she agreed. I barely remember the first year with Noah. I pray that Manny is healed and this is all just a distant memory. Be blessed my friend<br /><br />AshleeLinneahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15333442830705285496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6865733752789195615.post-70424698667668924972011-10-15T23:58:29.782-04:002011-10-15T23:58:29.782-04:00I've been a lurker for a while, but I am an al...I've been a lurker for a while, but I am an also an adoptive mom (3 from China), bringing two 7 y. o. boys home about a month ago. I think one may have hemifacial microsomia (like Zoe, right?), but we'll know more after a consultation at Shriners Hospital. Anyway, I'm writing because I see so many similarities in gut issues with Manny and a a 2-3 y.o. girl from our church who has mitochondrial disease. She has poor motility issues and is also on TPN (among other things!)...and also has skin sensitivities to tape. They are also forever running to the hospital and trying to figure out how to juggle the other kids. Not saying Manny has mito issues (though I suppose it could be possible), but you can check out her blog if you're ever looking for a (Christian) kindred spirit who can relate or even just to find out if there's any nutrition or tape that's working ;) Hang in there. http://terratalking.com/category/kendall/Karynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05024351969737730502noreply@blogger.com
