I know some of you know that my son has had some serious medical issues over the past couple of years. Well, lately things have gotten a bit worse for him. Since the beginning of June, he has been hospitalized for 27 days. The symptoms have run the gamut from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (Colitis) to Meningitis. In the past week alone he's been through a colonoscopy and a spinal tap (we're still waiting on results of the latter). He is 7 years old, and just in the past couple of months has lost even more weight....4 pounds from 40, that's 10% of his body weight. Like we needed any more reason for concern.
Why do I run DC? He is why. I'm sure I'm going to be even more scarce on this board over the next week or two at least, but any thoughts and prayers will be greatly appreciated, even if I miss a few thank you's.
Sorry for the rambling, but a few hours of sleep over several days does that to you when you get to be my age. Or at least when you get to feel as old as I feel right now.
