A Parasite!!!

It's finally over!!

The throw up and exploding diarrhea!

Max had his 2nd day of not throwing up and no diarrhea!! Yea!!! He lost 6 pounds in 13 days, but he is OK now! I took him back to the doctor on Friday and our great and wonderful pediatrician thought that it might be a parasite.

He wanted me to collect a stool sample,

but he came to his senses after he smelt one of Madi's farts!

Oh she had it too, just not as bad!! He laughed after he smelled it and said, "just think, I almost had you get a sample of that! ha, ha". He gave us a prescription that I finally was able to locate at Primary Children's Hospital and cost me $80.00!! But all is good now. Max started feeling much better the next day and was able to hold food down for the first time in 13 days. It was really strange cause he was able to keep liquids down but not food. Thank goodness it's over. I just feel really bad that Max has been in so much pain in his tummy and when he finally was able to eat, he couldn't eat fast enough! I started crying, feeling really bad that my baby was so hungry. By no means is he up to eating big meals yet, but he is eating more everyday. I just wanted to thank our wonderful doctor and medical science for being able to help him!!!
