On Wednesday we set out back down to UCLA, hoping to get some answers. Did we get them? Of course not, but I do feel like we are getting closer to a diagnosis. We had to wait in the room for 45 min. before the Dr came in just to introduce the student Dr. and boy was that a chore. Sammy was so good, although it was hard for him to be in the little room for so long. As you can see from the picture, the wait also took a toll on Daddy! Sammy's IGG levels are still very low and now this DR. is singing the tune of transfusion therapy. At the last visit the student Dr. had really brushed off the transfusion saying that it was not at all to that point, I think that we need to be careful about getting too emotionally invested in the things that the students tell us, because they are just students. So besides the 2nd confirmation of the possibility of trans. they also took more blood to study again. They also have asked us to get Sammy re vaccinated with the HIB vaccine because his body didn't respond to it. Weird huh? He got it but his body rejected it. So we go back the 28th of May, and hopefully then we will know a little more.

Back to UCLA
We also are looking forward to getting cookies from a little shop next to UCLA that a woman from church told me about. We welcome any other ideas of things to do around that area, we really would rather explore than sit in traffic!
