Day 14
So, Eddy went to the Dr. and he had really no idea what was wrong with him. He told me to try benadryl for the rash, and today...drum roll please....ITS GONE!!! But, now an ear infection. What am I to do? He is really looking much better. My mom called Randy Reese (the best DR. in the world) and asked him his advice. He suggested a couple of Docs in SLC that deal with allergies and working with a child's diet related to allergies. I guess a lot of children who are allergic to everything do not gain weight properly. Eddy has lost 2 pounds and Randy believes that his sickness is related to eating foods he is allergic to. So, I am going to take him to the diet/allergy Dr. and hopefully get him on a regimen that will pack some pounds on his tiny body. Just in case you were wondering these are the things that Eddy is allergic to: Milk, eggs, beef, yeast, nuts, dogs(oops), cats, and now I believe corn. This means that Eddy can eat the following: Applesauce, and sweet potatoes. Just kidding, but seriously. Can you imagine, no ranch or cheese? Those are my 2 favorite foods, poor kiddo.

wow, that is a lot of things to be allergic to. Poor guy. Why do kids become allergic to things? Do you know?
I swear that Dr. Reese was my doc when I was a kid. I could be wrong, and it could also be a different Dr. Reese, but that would be funny if it's the same guy.
Anyway, good luck with everything. I hope you can get a good diet in place and also that Eddy's ear infection will clear up.
Being sick sucks!
Yes, he was my Dr. too. See?? He must be super good if we went to him!
Poor you... that sound exhausting.
remember how we both went to Dr. Kjar too for our nose surgery. ha ha.
POOR EDDY and POOOOOOR YOU and your POOOOOR Washing Machine! You are all getting worked over!
I hope some doctor can figure something out. You should start telling baby 2 that allergies are not allowed.
Love ya! I will call and we can talk about a trip.
