Update On Conner

We heard from the doctor on some of our tests late Friday and he called back this afternoon (Monday) with the remainder of the results.  All of our test results came back good!  That is fantastic news! Especially the test for Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis because one doctor suspected that was the cause.

It is great news but I still find it odd that he was getting sick so often with things other than the common cold and ear infections.

During the past month, we've seen two different doctors so I am going to request that the second doctor also review the tests just to make sure.

Our course of action at the moment is just to treat the Summer of Fever as a random set of coincedences and hope the shot on Tuesday killed whatever was lingering in his body.  The rash is completely gone by now so he looks like a normal child again!

We still have to repeat a test in one month . . . each time he has had the test run the results get better but they still aren't exactly where they need to be.

Thanks again for everyone who prayed for Conner and our family.  I feel a little silly to say now that possibly nothing was wrong with him but that of course is what we were all praying for! :)
