Bekah Jael!

Well we did go to Riley last week and let me tell you it was a lot of work with her and Caleb but we survived! The dr does not think she has celiac but has no idea what her problem is. He was glad to hear her diet was working but he wanted us to try her back on gluten again to see what happens. If the diarrhea came back then he wanted us to continue the diet but if it stayed away then we could go back to a normal diet. He also had us get another blood test done just to make sure the celiac test was still negative just for reassurance I guess. We havent heard back on the test yet but we did start having her eat gluten again. So far So good!!! No diarrhea as of yet and no upset tummy that we can tell! We hope this continues but arent getting our hopes up yet. It is so nice not to have to make separate meals anymore! It is also nice not to have to tell her no on such yummy snacks although she always handled it well. For some reason though it looks like her system was sensitive but now that she is getting older she seems to be getting "normal." We still have not tried her on oats yet bc we want to give this first test a little while before trying something else. We also tried her back on oats a month ago and she had diarrhea immediately. Oats just may take her longer but we can live without oats! That is no big deal compared to gluten! Please pray with us that we are done with all this diarrhea with Bek and nothing starts back up for her. We are so happy to have her doing better! She is such a happy wild and incredibly sweet girl with a very caring heart. So much like her father!
