Good News for Makayla!

Well after the six hour blood draw test to check Makayla's growth hormone, we have good news. She doesn't need any!! I was really surprised. We honestly thought this would be the end of the easy stuff with Makayla and we would have to start with the tests and shots and blah, blah, blah. But no...once again the girl defies doctors and the medical world in general. So, she has no need for growth hormone supplement right now and will be checked again in a year...we aren't naive enough to think we are completely done with this. It's always nice to get good news. The only other "thing" we have to do with her this year is get her eye surgery to try and make her right side look a little more normal. This will be her only plastic surgery and the chances of it working are 50/50..but I would rather do it than have her resent us later because we didn't. That surgery is scheduled for August 24th and we are hoping she will pull through it well and be ready for school 2 weeks later. SO...that is my good news for the day! I am hoping my doc can get some things rolling for me today, so this other little girl will make her appearance soon. This is honestly the only good week for her arrival!
