hypothyroidism

We recently found out that Caden might have hypothyroidism. Which is an under active thyroid. (Check HERE to read on hypothyroidism.) So, on top of his syndrome that tells him to eat and hinders his metabolism, he might have this to hurt his weight gain problems as well. We are going to have him checked again the week before his surgery, and if his numbers come back the same the doctors are going to put him on medication for that. So, he'll get rid of the medication for his kidney and replace it with a pill for that.

How do you get a 2 1/2 year old to take a pill? I guess we'll figure something out.


He goes in on March 19th to get his bad kidney removed. So, prayers are needed then.



Until Next time, I continue to ask for and thank you for your prayers.
