MEGAN UPDATE

MONDAY, JULY 31, 2006 09:47 PM, CDT

Still no fevers! She had her pacing wires removed today, so the only thing she's attached to now is her heart and O2 monitors and the feeding tube (which she was attached to before surgery)!!! The nurse let Cole help with removing the pacing wires, which made him feel very important.

She had a really good day and seems to be feeling so much better than before surgery. One doctor who saw her when we were here a couple weeks ago just kept commenting on the difference. She couldn't believe it. She said it usually takes longer for kids to look good, so we're thankful for that.

A family that at Ronald McDonald House just had surgery today and isn't doing well and had to be put back on the heart lung machine tonight. His name is Will Ray. Please pray for him and his parents, Fred and Amy.

Thanks for everything!

Love to all - Jarod, Tanya, Cole, and Megan Hope

:) This is truly a miracle how fast she is recovering. The power of many praying people and her strong little spirit. I will certainly be praying for little Will and Fred and Amy. Thank you for the great news on Megan. Cole is so precious too. What a great little "big brother."

And then from the site...

Megan continues to do so well. We are so blessed. On doctor said we may even get to go home today, but probably by tomorrow at least. I'll let you know as we find out more.

WHOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!

I will be saying lots of prayers for Will and his family.

I just found this on Megan's site:

Tanya asked me to do an update... they are going home today!!!! Praise God. She said it will most likely be later on before they are released but they are going home today.

Tanya and family,

So happy that Megan will go home so soon! That is wonderful she is feeling so much better. I am sure it is such a relief to have her playing again and smiling.

Will pray for the little boy Will that isn't doing well. I stayed in R. McDonald house when my son had surgeries. The greatest part is having other families that are going through the same thing you are and can totally relate and it makes you feel as if you are not alone.

Take care,

Monica

I am so happy that Megan is coming home. It is so funny to have never met this family, yet even my family knows about them. My sister asked yesterday, "how is that baby doing?". :P

      Pretty desperate for some guidance

      Pua, do you understand that genetic testing cannot be used as proof of having celiac disease as it only establishes the potential to develop active celiac disease? About 40% of the population has the genetic potential to develop active celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop it. However, it can be used as a rule out measure.

      Does 101gl mean. I have celiac desease

      Welcome to the forum, @Marilyn1941! As Wheatwacked explained, we need more information. There are a number of blood antibody tests that can be run to detect celiac disease. Some are more meaningful than others in the sense of positive results being due to celiac disease or possibly due to something else. So, knowing exactly what test the score you gave...

      Pretty desperate for some guidance

      When my son was weaned in 1976 he was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. My mom said at the time. "you got what you gave." His doctor insisted on Nutramigen as the only hyperallergenic baby formula with full nutrition. After 6 months he was weaned to gluten free diet. It seems it still has that status. He has grown strong and well.

      Does 101gl mean. I have celiac desease

      Hi @Marilyn1941, Welcome to the forum. There is not enough info to go on. What test name? What are the results and the laboratory's normal range they used? Why were you tested? What kind of symptoms? Age, sex and country would be helpful but not necessary.

Some are more meaningful than others in the sense of positive results being due to celiac disease or possibly due to something else. So, knowing exactly what test the score you gave is referring to would be helpful. In addition, the ranges and units of measure used by different labs differs from one lab to another. There is no industry standard for these. So, we would need to know the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for that test used by the lab who did the analysis. And was there only that one test ordered by the physician?
