Another Day

Well YEAH, JJ is eating again. He will have another weight check tomorrow, so we will see at that time if he is gaining/losing whatever. :) I have a feeling he is gaining, just because he feels heavier. But during those days of no eating, I KNOW he lost, even if a little. But as long as he is GAINING over the long run, I know they will be happy.

But still. The coughing, the mucous and the throwing up concern me. I hate always having to be on guard. I hate having to carry a throw up cup every where with me. I hate having to take all my kids out of a room when someone mentions they or their child is sick because I cannot risk JJ getting sick.

I do have hope, since he is only two, that he will grow out of this by five. But even then, can I give him things that I am unable to know, and not worry about it? Or will I forever be worrying about what he can and cannot eat?

At this point I even know more than the feeding therapist about my son and his allergies and the foods he can and cannot eat. I must admit that it is a bit frustrating as I really want ANSWERS as to why and how. It seems that children with food/environmental allergies (to an extreme) is becoming more and more prevalent.

At least he is eating today. And has not thrown up at all today.
