Things that make you go hmmm....

Happy Thursday!

Things are going pretty good in the Woldt household. Hunter's heart rate has been dropping and hanging lower than usually at night. So, we have been a little concerned about that. So, today he is going in for a blood draw to check things out and make sure all is well. I think he is just so exhausted from everything going on he is just that tired.

Hayden is good. He is excited that his 2nd cousin Charlie is coming to sleep over on Saturday night. It should be fun.

Harrison is good. It is getting amazing how much he is saying and doing all of a sudden. I almost forgot how much they learn so quickly : )

So, overall things are pretty uneventful. Have a fabulous day! God Bless

Things are going good

Things are going good in the Woldt household. Hunter went last week for his checkup, and his bottom half checked out well : ) We had a little respitory bug going on, so we went back on some zithromax. Let's just say between the flagil for his bowels and the zithromax, it has been interesting. I feel so bad for him because his butt is so sore. I shouldn't complain, because that doesn't happen often.

Overall Hunter is doing much better, still not himself, but better. You can tell his stamina is not back, but what do you expect after having a few long weeks. So, hopefully we are over the Seven year itch and can move on.

Hayden is doing good. He is off of school today, so Dad took the day off and they are going out for breakfast and then ice fishing. So, I am sure they will have fun.

Harrison is getting to be such a little stinker. He is going through the wonderful slapping stage. He gets made at something and he slaps it. So, we have been working on trying to break that habit. He was pretty cute the other day. I had Hunter's suction sitting on the living room table, and I came back and there Harrison was waiving the suction cathitor in Hunter's face. He knew we did something with it, he just wasen't sure what. What a little helper.

So, life is good and the family is healthy. Hope this finds everyone well. God Bless

The Verdict

Well, it appears Hunter has Colitis. Apparently kids that have Hirsch Sprungs can often get this after being on antibiotics, which can cause the bowels to slow down.

Right now he is getting pedialyte and is tolerating that. So, the plan is to go home tomorrow morning. They will keep him on an antibiotic to help with the inflation in his bowels, we will continue irrigating him, do another day on pedialyte, and then start feeds slowly.

So, things look good, just a little bump in the road and we will be home for our lucky 7 birthday!

Now, we have to try to get the little guy to sleep. You can tell he knows that he is not at home, and he is not happy about it. If we could only know what was going through his mind. I seriously think he wants to know what all the fuss is about : )

The nurses have been good, and the new GI doctor seems good. So, continue to keep Hunter in your Prayers.

Here are a few pics

7 Year Itch

Well, Hunter must have been having the 7 year itch. Yesterday we took him back to the pediatrcian, they did another xray of his bowls and things were worse. They were originally going to admit us in Neenah, but then decided it would be best for us to head to Madison so GI could see us.

They said it looks like Colitis. They want to irrigate him, which is similar to getting an enema, and then rest his bowels. So, we are waiting this morning for the Dr. to come in and see him, and then for them to do another xray.

I told Hunter, he must have been having the 7 year itch. I told him, next time to just tell me ; ) it is pretty freaky that it has been almost exactly 7 years since we were here... Crazy Crazy

So, we were originally suppose to be in Madison today for a bronch, now we are inpatient for our bowels. Well, this too will pass.

I will keep you posted. Please keep Hunter in your prayers. God Bless

Hopefully Nothing

Last week Hunter had blood in his stool. It was one diaper so we talked to the Dr and they said to just watch it. Well, we have now had two more. My poor little guy... He can't even complain

So, it looks like a call to the Dr this morning, and I am really hoping that if they want to do a scope, they can arrange it so they can do it on Wednesday when we are in Madison for his bronch.

Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. We will keep you posted.

God Bless
