Today was a very busy day. Jess had a good workout in therapy. He also had a blood test taken to make sure the formula we have put together for his feeding tube is adequate. I contacted a doctor in Kethum who specializes in integrated medicine which combines alternative and traditional medical practices together. She is going to visit with us next Monday to help us decide on the best treatments and course to take to help Jess on his journey to wellness. From what I told her she felt we were doing far better than most at this early stage of his recovery. It is so good to have someone to help us make critical decisions for his welfare. So, things are about the same. We are hanging in there....drawing strength from the source in which we are all connected. Keep the positive energy flowing....with love....
