Marra Shae

It has been about a month and a half since Marra and Kieran had their tonsils and adenoids taken out. Both kids have put on some weight! Kieran is talking up a storm is and is more understandable now, he has also grown 3 inches in the last 6 months! Marra also had an esophageal scope and biopsies done at that time because of her weight loss and stomach issues. The biopsies were clean but the scope did show that the bottom of her esophagus is swollen and irritated. She is now on two acid reflux meds a day with the hopes that by the new year she will be completely off of reflux meds! In the past month she has put back on 5 of the pounds she had lost since January, she has also grown about 2 inches in the last 2 months.



If you remember Marra had surgery to untwist her right ovary in early May. When we went to get an ultrasound to make sure everything was going ok with that they found something wrong with her kidneys. We went back for a recheck yesterday and they did another ultrasound series.



They don't think her kidneys and bladder are emptying completely when she pees and her kidneys look a bit swollen. So we go on Wednesday for another test, a voiding cystourethrogram. Hopefully this will determine what is going on there. It could be nothing but they want to check it out just to make sure.



So if you could please continue to keep Marra in your prayers. Once we have the results I will post again and let you all know what is going on with my Marra Shae.
