Isaiah 41:10
Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice.
The chill in the air is a little hard to take in. Last year, November was the month where many of our troubles began. It was in November when we realized there was an issue with Noah's eating. His weight became a concern and the weekly visits to the Dr. were an order.
Earlier this week, his nephrologist called. Noah will need surgery to correct his reflux which is still severe. His bladder is smaller than it should be and the fact that the urine keeps going back into the kidney as opposed into the bladder is not helping the bladder any. The deflux will be done in order to help the bladder expand and later in his life this won't create more problems.
The problem...a deflux isn't always successful :/
We were so close to make it through November without the added stress of a surgery. Maybe next year, holidays will be nice and quiet. We aren't sure when this will be done. As I type this, I anxiously await for the call to confirm appointment. I hate my child going through all of this. I hate my family under so much stress. I hate my husband feeling so helpless. I hate myself being mentally weak.
And then, there is that bump on Marcos' neck. A couple of weeks ago we noticed a bump on his neck. We didn't hesitate to take him to the Dr. Dr. didn't seem too concerned. Last week, we went in for a follow up. Surgeon's opinion is necessary now.
I don't like the chill in the air anymore. Bye bye October.
I love my baby brother Noah.
