What a journey I've been on these last few days! First I want to say thank you for all those who kept my son in their prayers. It was a great comfort knowing that so many were praying---prayers were answered!
The more I studied up on Reyes Syndrome, the more questions I had. The symptoms were not working with the prognosis! After much internal debate and great angst by people who thought I wasn't doing enough I decided to have my son see MY doctor. And I'm glad I did. Short version is he does NOT have Reyes Syndrome but he does have a food allergy. And in light of the fact that we thought the worst, a food allergy is a piece of cake! The road to which food or foods he may be allergic to, is long and so far we've discovered that milk is major culprit. One day at a time one food at a time.
This was yet another wake up call for this family and a deeper answer to prayer. We are now forced into eating healthier foods. Being more aware of what we put in and on our bodies. How can that be wrong? Answer: it's not!
