Uneventful

That describes our day at the hospital. Praise God! After discussing Caed's history, lab work, and growth chart thoroughly, the endocrinologist honestly said she sees no need for anything at this point. One of the growth hormones in his body that came back "untraceable," was not a major concern to her. She said she looks at many other factors in conjunction with it, and those were in the normal range. He is also in the 20-25 percentile in both height and weight, which he has been most of his life. (I think it's just in the genes!) Caed had an x-ray of his hand (which he thought was "so weird!!").....and it came back showing his bones measured that of a 5 yr. old. yea!!! So, what was supposed to be a 3 hr. appt, was over in only 1. The dr. wants to see Caed back in 6 months to assess him again.

Thank you for your prayers! God is GOOD!!

We're just going to keep praying that all goes well with Caed as this appt. did.I know it must be scary but trust in the Lord. He is still right there with you all.

That's awesome. So my comment was right... he is too huge, lol! Glad to hear it went so well. He definitely didn't look too little when I saw him... but then Molly is usually hanging onto the very bottom of the growth charts, so I may not be the best judge!
