Dr. Austin report:

We went to Louisville on Wednesday to see Karsyn's surgeon. He thought everything looked really well and we do not need to see him ever again:) We also did a blood check and that was 2.2 so now we are going the other way. This is all I have time for now I have to get busy cleaning up this house it is a mess we have been running all week and we will go again tomorrow to do blood check and see Dr Arensman. Whew! What a week!!

TIRED OF THIS CRAZY COUMADIN !!

Our week started out a lot different then we had planned. Monday morning we went to get his coumadin level checked and we were all just talking and once the nurse just stopped and looked at me really funny and told me it was 7.0 I told her that is not right do it again and it wasn't a false reading. Normal for him should be between 2 and 3 if it gets to 3 that is pretty thin already you can tell it takes alot longer for him to stop bleeding, 7 is really thin. We called Dr Arensman and he said to go over to the hospital and do a lab draw. He was still thinking that something was wrong with the machine cause as of last Monday it was 2.3. It turned out that the lab draw was 7.7 Dr Bies was in contact with Dr Arensman and they decided that it was not safe to have him go home because even a small bump or bruise could be severe as he could bleed out really fast. We was admitted and Dr Beis came over and checked him out and along with Dr Arensman they decided to just watch him over night and get it rechecked Tue morning so we played the rest of the day and watched movies, I think he even had fun:) Blood test this morning was 3.5 PRAISE THE LORD!! We are at home and go to Louisville tomorrow to see his surgeon and get a another check done tomorrow. We don't really know what caused this but he has been sick this last week and maybe that had something to do with it. We talked about when he does come down with something we should have him checked more often. Poor Dr Beis will probably hear from us more often as this scared the wits out of me, might just put him on speed dial:) He is great, don't know what we would do without him. Hoping everything goes good tomorrow, Ill let you know

Catching up

Oh my! Where do I start? Its been so long since I updated I don't know where to begin, people were telling me they check all the time no new blogs so I'm gonna try to catch up with whats going on with Karsyn. He is doing very well which I'm so thankful for we still have to check his comundin levels and they are doing a lot better so maybe we can just check once a week. That would be great!! We was having a time with him when I said where we were going he would lose it, cry and cry until he would throw up before we ever left and then we would get there it would get worse. On Monday before Christmas we went and they had to stick him 4 times because he wouldn't hold still we had 3 nurses and me holding him down, when we left I told him that was the last time mom was going to go, its going to be Dad from now on Mom is tired of it so on Wednesday dad went and he walked in like a big boy and didn't shed a tear. The nurse called as soon as they left and told me that they had a new patient today:) She also said the whole time he kept looking at Nate like see how big I am, he was really proud! ( did I mention this is just a finger prick ) Little stinker!! I don't know if he just knew I would baby him or what. He has done some things like this at home too, one day we were getting ready to leave to go somewhere and he put his pajamas on and went to bed, when I asked him what was wrong he just said he is really really sick so of course I carried him choc milk and everything else he wanted and he just watched movies. One time I asked him if he is getting better and he said " mom I think I could have a seizure " but when Dad came home he turned into a new boy. " can we go to grandma's tonight? Nate told him"oh no you were really sick all day" " well I got better really fast you see daddy " Do you get the picture? He really can put on at the right times with the right people:) One thing that is amazing is how much more stamina he has now. When we go into a store he walks with me instead of riding in a cart, He used to not make in the doors. We go back to Louisville on 13th and on the 22nd and some time this coming week we plan our Disney vacation, Karsyn was chosen by the Make A Wish and of course he wanted to meet Lighting McQueen and Mater. We all are very excited!!!! Don't have time right now to get pictures on but will try tomorrow.
