More tests...

Just heard from Oakland. Cam didn't sweat enough again. There are several four-letter words I'd like to say right now, but I'm sure you can all imagine how irritated I am. Now we have to do another poop test and the doctor in Oakland ordered a genetic screening test to see if Cam has the gene in his blood. I guess this takes a week and a half to get results. We'll find out when we get back from Vegas. We're just going about our lives as if the CF test is negative, but there's always going to be that nagging worry in the back of our minds until we find out for sure. I can't believe we have to scoop poop out of another diaper and my baby boy has to be poked one more time. He's a baby, not a science project!!! The good news is that he's one tough kid, didn't even cry the last time he got his blood drawn. I'm just mad and sad all in one. I want some answers, not knowing is the worst. :(

Ali,
“Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you” (1 Peter 5:6-7)
You're in my thoughts and prayers, Enjoy your trip to Vegas!

So many things negative, but still so many questions. I don't think I have ever hoped more for someone to be lactose intolerant (I am one of the unlucky ones :() The genetic test is a good one, so I am really hoping it is negative!!! I will do my best to answer any questions, concerns, fears, etc if needed. Stay strong and at least the testing will be done soon!!
