Gail
He's admitted - Cincinnati
Hi everyone!
I wanted to share a quick update. As I’m sure many of you have heard, we are concerned about a particular condition and concerned about Gabriel period right now. We are headed to Cincinnati, Ohio a week from tomorrow to meet with a world known expert in immunology/blood disease and the leading expert in the particular disease we are worried about. It sounds like they will be drawing substantial blood at our visit and will follow-up with a phone consult. I really am unsure about what she is going to say and whether or not she is going to know what is wrong with Gabe.
He’s been suffering a lot lately. He’s had many bad headaches, lack of appetite and the loss of two pounds, low energy and irritability. He presented last night with all these symptoms including a high fever. The reason for the fever is unknown which is usually the case. He was admitted at Beaumont around 11:00 last night.
In addition to him not feeling good, he’s been going through some emotional stuff and I am worried about his spirit. He cries a lot in the middle of the night and cries himself to sleep a lot. Last night he was admitted while sleeping and awoken to a needle. I have never wanted this to come to a resolution more in four years than I do right now. I really want him to have a break.
We are hanging in there the best we can and just getting by one day at a time. We are feeling very loved and supported so thank you for that!
We are tossing the idea around of trying an immune system suppressant infusion drug just to see if it helps him feel better and not knowing if it will. We may do this in the morning.
I will update later.
Rebekah
