Tyler's numbers continue to increase!!!  He feels great & is now driving. He passed his learner's on the first try. We are so proud of him. He is a very good driver.

Never a dull moment...........
We noticed a spot on his arm a few weeks ago. It looked like a foreign object under his skin & it was a perfect line & the vein could be clearly seen on both ends. It is about 3 centimeters long. We took him to the local pediatrician & had several tests done at the local hospital. It was a mystery to everyone with no results. I decided to call his doctor at MCV. The doctor scheduled him for a doppler & then an appt in clinic with her after the test was done. It was the quickest trip to MCV that we have ever had. Ty had the doppler done & the lady that performed it called his doctor right away & we went upstairs to clinic & got directly back into a room. She comes in & says this is a mystery.....you have a blood clot in your arm. The clot is in a peripheral vein & she is not putting him on medication....his blood is already thin. We were told to watch the area & call if things changed. Everything seems to be a mystery with our little guy. He always keeps us & his doctors on their toes. We are praying that this blood clot that is now separating will go away on it's own & not cause any harm. Please pray with us.

We had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to a healthy new year. Tyler's blood counts continue to go up each time he goes to the doctor. His appointments are spreading out more & we are loving it!
Tyler loves school & is looking forward to getting his learners permit this month. He is ready to drive & we are sure that he will be a great driver. We are thankful for healthy children.

We wish you all a happy new year & we pray that everyone will have a healthy year.
