Update on the Cole Situation...

So, this morning I had an appointment for myself in regards to the Chalazion's in my eyelids (it's basically like a sty but it's deeper into the oil glands that secrete oil to the eye to keep it lubricated) basically what's happening is instead of producing and secreting oil the consistency of Olive Oil, it's massing up and clogging together in some of the glands in my eye, causing bumps along the inside of my eye. I had surgery on my Lower Right eyelid in May and he missed a small sty which has now grown. The other two on my Left eye have Gone down because I've been washing my face twice a day and doing compresses and what not. The one on my Top Right eyelid has remained the same since I noticed it last September. they have me on eye drops to see if it will go away since it worked last time. if that doesn't work. I'll have to have surgery again. here is me after the surgery. you can see the other bumps in the picture (especially on my Left top eyelid).



Now onto Cole. I "had" an appointment for him today, or so I thought, it was actually Tuesday. but the Lady on the phone TOLD me Thursday. which really ticks me off because It made it look like I skipped out on my Son's Appointment and For real, I would NEVER miss my sons appointment on purpose, especially one as important as trying to get to the root of his constipation issues.

It was a relief to have a doctor sit down and listen to my concerns, what she thinks might be going on, she asked me questions other people hadn't, I explained everything I've tried. She also told me that the GE doctor does NOT need to have him cleaned out to see him, so she put in a referral for that but said it might take awhile since the nurse who does the pre-screenings is the only Peds GE nurse in the State. She also has me giving him Magnesium Citrite at night to see if that helps him go. unfortunately, if this doesn't work he will have to be admitted and flushed through his mouth, I am not looking forward to this as it scares me and will be terrifying for him and he's had to go through enough honestly. so please pray that the Mg Citrite helps him. my friend said it really works because she used to have to use it. so I am keeping my fingers crossed that it helps him pass this issue.

I would write more but I've been up since 8 this morning and it's now midnight and I am tired. I will maybe update tomorrow. Good Night!
