tick tock...

Thanks for checking in with us. Cam's appointment for the CF test was at 11 this morning. We found the Kaiser in Oakland without a problem, it's quite a large facility. To test for CF they make you sweat and collect the sweat and test it for sodium levels. Aparently if it's really high it means he has CF. First they put some electrodes on his arms that gave him a little electic pulse to stimulate the sweat glands, then they put different bands on him, bundled him up in his jacket and let him play for half an hour. They removed the bands and sent the sweat stuff to the lab. They gave us a time frame of when we'll know: tomorrow by 3 or Friday by 5. Now we wait. Doug and I are both exhausted from worrying. I feel like a walking zombie. Huge thanks to our friend Lisa for watching Chase for us today while we took Cam to Oakland. I'll post more when I know more. He's still eating like a pig, not sure if he's not absorbing, or if he's just catching up...
