Finally...

Finally is the word that could sum up a few things lately.
Finally, our computer is back.
Finally, Kevin is back to work. He was off all last week because of flooding.
Finally, the oldest girls will have a room of there own. Since Kevin was off he was able to finish their room. No more sleeping in the boys room starting tomorrow.

Finally, Isaac is showing some real improvement. He gained 6 pounds in two weeks time!!!! We are so very happy. Kevin wanted to call everyone he knew to tell them of this awesome news. It means so many things. The parasites are probably gone. His villi is standing up and taking in nutrients from his foods. Oh, we have been waiting for this time with great anticipation! Isaac is so encouraged too. He's finally happy with the foods he's eating. Some things he doesn't yet like but he's incredibly strong and takes them like a "man" or not. Some men don't take illness very well :) He is bouncing on the mini-trampoline we got several times a day and it took away the chest pain (the pain was really his lymph system draining). He is getting weekly lymph treatments and his improvement coincides with having them done. I believe a combination of diet, supplements, lymph treatments, God's hand, and the love of his family :) brought this about, and prayers from all those prayer warriors out there.

Please keep him in your prayers. Pray for continued success in weight gain, the foods he eats to agree with him and for healing of his body. He does still have a long way to go. We may be over the worst of it though and that is worth so much to us.

I hate this to get too long but the things we sent away to be tested because we thought they were parasites because he passed a whole lot of them in a short amount of time, well, they were banana seeds. Not banana, but banana seeds. His body wasn't processing the banana he was eating obviously and they were sitting there and making him sick. When they finally came out it was all at once and there were too many at once for us to believe they were really banana, besides we smashed his banana. I don't know enough about this yet but now that I have my computer back I'm going to be checking on a few things. Could banana that sits in your stomach start to ferment and actually sprout. The doctor we are seeing doesn't think so but why were there 50 or more per bowel movement. Why did they become a hard seed like thing? A new mystery in all of this.
