Moody/Karens daughter Olivia

Karen - I'm sooo sorry. I know you were really hoping that that test would help to identify what the problem is - so that you could start getting Olivia's health turned around.  I feel so bad for you guys - sending huge hugs and lots more prayers out for you and Olivia - this has gone on for far too long.

I am so sorry that the answer has not presented itself yet.  Confident it will soon.  Have faith!

We will be here until the light dawns and the answer arrives.

So sorry that it wasn't today.

Yes. Insist on seeing whoever you've determined to be the best possible. Insist on immediate attention. Cry or shout or nag or whatever it takes.

Praying for answers.

Moody ladies, I am so sorry that you do not yet have your answers~~~but you do have a plan!!

Karen, if you are interested in Cleveland Clinic I will try and make some calls to find out how to get Olivia in there

Karen I just wanted to share that my Kelsey asked if I heard anything on your DD.  Just know we are all thinking of her and hoping you find out what needs done to get her better soon.

Karen and Olivia, Just wanted ya'll to know that you still have people in Bowman praying for you!! Get well soon!!!!! xoxoxo

Karen, I just popped into bc.org.  I didn't know that Olivia was still so sick.  I am so sorry.  I know how scared you are for Olivia.  Seeing your child this sick is awful.  I wish there was something I could do for you.  I will try to do some research.  However, you know how dumb I am.    And, Olivia, you and you mom will be in my prayers.  A doctor will be found soon that will give you the correct diagnoses.  I know because God is hearing all these prayers.  Sometimes God doesn't answer them as quickly as WE want.  But with God there is no "time."  So, hang in there and try to stay strong.

Hugs

stopped in hoping for something new but prayers continue to be prayed

Good news!  Hopefully the meds will do the trick and sweet Olivia can return to her old self in no time.  If not then you have an excellent back up plan in place. 

Oh Karen........this must (finally) be the light at the end of the tunnel.  All the best.  Can't wait to hear updates now!  Gentle hugs to you all. 

I've been praying with you without posting, but with this diagnosis I just want to warn you that the reglan can make them anxious/irritable so just keep an eye on that. My oldest D had reflux (the kind where chunks of food actually come back up several times a day) all her life. It wasn't diagnosed until 7th grade because she thought it was normal (we teased her about thinking that humans were like cows) and the meds made a big difference. But the reglan did make her moodier than usual, and once we realized that it was the meds, not her, it made it easier to live with! She's now 20 and off the reglan, but still on prilosec regularly.

I've been watching this thread and praying for Olivia and Karen.

Karen, I wanted to tell you something about reglan so you won't be surprised.  I believe it basically speeds up the digestive process.  So don't be surprised if Olivia has diarrhea.  By speeding up the digestion, the thought is that the reglan will keep you from being nauseous by not letting food 'sit' in the stomach very long.

My prayers for Olivia that she begins to feel relief and can go back to being a young girl with all the wonderful activities that comes with that, for Karen to have super MOM strength, and for the doctors to be guided to find the cause and best treatment for Olivia.

Much love and lots of hugs,

Bethie

Yippeeee praying this is finally the answer. Doing a happy dance. Reflux can sure make you feel that way. Still praying.. God bless hugs for you all....
