first appointment today - endo.

We saw Dr. Irene this morning. I wish you all could meet her - she is so great! So much energy and warmth - and she's good at her job. She says Athan looks good. We sill check his hormone levels for thyroid and growth with labs later today, and maybe adjust the dosage of some of his meds.

He is growing in length like a little weed! :) 24 inches today. He is still thin, especially for his length. However, the good news is that his rate of weight gain is up this time! yeah! :) He weighs 10lb 5oz today. Last time he was only gaining about 14 grams a day. This time he was a little over 20 grams a day. So glad about that.

We're grabbing some lunch, then heading over from the clinic to the hospital to repeat his EEG. Then we see neurology this afternoon for the first time. Will update soon.
