Justin update #2

I took Justin in today for a retest. Im just not use to him looking so pale and I wanted to make sure things were okay. His iron count is 'okay' and his hemoglobin and hemocrit levels are the same as they were last week. Which is good but I wanted to see them go up. Even if just a little. She also said that with him being as anemic as he is, she is surprised he doesn't have a heart murmurer. His little heart is taking everything so well.

We are going to be taking him to see an hematologist/oncologist this week. Just for a second opinion and more tests that a regular pediatrician wont do. This can be a multitude of things and we don't want to chance anything with him. My baby is far to important to us to just sit around and wait for answers.

Keep those prayers coming! Little guy needs as many as he can get!!
