Mama Update

So I'll just give everyone a quick update on Holdy. His Eczema is not getting any better like so many (9) doctors have told us that it would over time. So after trying many different perscriptions, creams, salves, lotions, body washes, formulas and itch medications we have decided that we seriously need to get this little boy better. We have finally had it with our main clinic in Detroit Lakes (now I wouldn't even bring my cats there to be treated) and we have switched clinics. Yesterday I took him to Fargo to the Children's Meritcare to see an actual Pediatrition and now we might finally be taking a step in the right direction. He has another infection and they actually took a swab of it to find out what type it was so they can give him the right antibiotic to treat the problem. They also did an allergy test on him to test for the basic food and household allergans....when those results come back from Mayo they will do further testing until they find out how to get him better. I was so happy with the new doc that he saw yesterday that I will be taking back to her for a long time. Thank you everyone for all your concern, support and prayers for Holden. I think he may soon be on the road to recovery.

Other than that Holden is such a trooper and seems to be very healthly in every other way. He is now standing up on everything, eating more fun foods and working really hard on his 3rd tooth and crawling. We are having a lot of fun trying to keep up with him and really enjoying his devoloping personality!!!!!

I hope they uncover some things and get Holdy feeling better! It'll be such a relief to have him feeling 100%. And happy baby makes happy mama. We think of you guys often and are hoping you get some good news!
