New Hope

Yesterday, Oct. 5th, we took Logan to see Dr. Morgan, a pediatric Naturopath. We were very pleased with what we were told. After spending about an hour and a half with Dr. Morgan, we walked away with a better knowledge of what everything meant. Now, knowing that Doctors are not God and still don't know everything, we will still wait and see what happens with the new treatment regiment. BUT, Dr. Morgan has been pretty dead on all along. We learned that the elevation of the carnitines and other areas in his blood could be typical of his inability to eat and utilize his food, and even his lack of white matter, which is mostly composed of fatty acid, could be related to his inability to eat normally. See, if his body is not getting or being able to process the fats, his body will scavenge what it needs from wherever he can get it, his brain in this scenario. If you aren't getting what you need nutritionally, your blood will show it. Imagine that? :-) Anyway, I will not attempt to explain everything that he did, just simply state that we will be feeding him more nutrition, more fatty acids, and giving him herbs that will coat and help heal the esophogus as well as diminish the inflamation in his intestine. He also wants more specific allergy testing, this particular test being able to tell us the reactivity level of the allergen, and some stool testing. Logan's Dad and I walked away feeling a lot lighter, even in the pocketbook, and understanding a lot more. I am ever greatful for the Spirit that testifies of truth wherever it lies. We are hopeful, I think I can speak for Logan's Dad, but he will for sure be speaking for himself, soon, that we are going to find a way to manage and get past this. The Lord is so merciful. We would be amiss if we didn't acknowledge His hand in our lives through great friends and people. We are so greatful!
