On a side note, Trevor had his physical today. He is growing well but has lost a pound since New Years Eve when he had strep and was weighed. He eats very little and has major texture issues. We have been referred to a speech/eating specialist. We will be having testing done soon. He has always had texture issues since he was a baby because he didn't get solids until much later than he should have due to milk protein and soy protein allergies. We had worked with Speech therapists before trying to overcome his gag reflex when he was younger but when he was 3 they discontinued services and at the time our insurance didn't cover it. He has made great strides since then, having his first piece of real meat at the age of 6 but he still can't handle lots of textures, which results in less food.
He also has an issue with one of his eyes. The Dr. said it can't focus when he asks him to stare at something. The Dr. can see it trying to but his eye never really stops moving so we will need to see and opthamologist soon too. Trevor is worried about wearing glasses but I told him he will look just like Harry Potter and he thought that might be kind of cool.
Other than that he is doing great! He grew a 2.5 inches since last year!!!
Ok, time to go read!
Have a great night everyone!
Love,
Michelle
