5 weeks & counting . . .

Well, today is a full 5 weeks of sneezing for Morgan. The 2nd nerve block didn't last long, and now she is getting sick, already running 100 degree fever. Seems like she will never get to go back to school. Running out of ideas and patience, so frustrated at this moment.

Love, Bella

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMILY RHYSE!!



HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY LITTLE ONE!!

LOVE, BELLA & POPPA

Two weeks & three days .... hoping the sneezing has stopped

Well after two weeks, three days and four doctors later, and missing almost 2 full weeks of school, there is no medical reason why Morgan should be sneezing. The only medical information is from overseas and all it says is that after three or four weeks, the people just quit sneezing. That's just wonderful!!

The school won't allow Morgan to attend until she quits sneezing, so now they are sending her work home for her to do. Not sure how that's going to work out, but that's where we are right now.

The only thing left that they can do for the sneezing is to clip that nerve and they won't consider doing that until after 4 weeks of sneezing. I'm not sure I want them doing that anyway, because it is permanent and she will have a "numb" spot on her cheek.

I keep praying that she will quit sneezing and soon.

Love, Bella

Look out El Dorado - here we come again . . .

Well, the MRI they did on Morgan yesterday yielded absolutely NOTHING!! Got a call from Dr. Pillsbury's office this morning saying that he had been on the phone to a doctor at UAMS and decided they would like to do a CT scan. So, back to El Dorado we go tomorrow for the scan. Tried to send Morgan to school today, didn't work, they called for me to come get her - she was sneezing constantly again. I know that she is getting tired of this - just wish they could figure it out. Back to the drawing board, so to speak. Yesterday, Dr. Pillsbury said that he is running out of ideas and has no clue as to what is causing the sneezing. Only Jesus knows, at this point, what is going on.

Love, Bella

Doctor #3

Hopefully it is true what they say - third times a charm. Morgan is still sneezing, only relief is when they "numb" the inside of her nose, which they can't just keep doing. Doctor #3 is running different tests to see what could be going on that keeps Morgan sneezing constantly. He scoped her nose yesterday, found no foreign "objects" in there, sent her for a urine test - which came back negative, and now we go early Monday morning for an MRI,and then to the doctor's office. I was just curious, so while sitting in the waiting room at the doctor's office, after filling out paperwork, I started counting Morgan's sneezes, she sneezed over 100 times, one right after the other, no telling how many actual sneezes, because she was sneezing before I started counting & continued to sneeze afterwards, until, of course, they called us back & "numbed" her nose (I think they got tired of hearing her in the waiting room).

So, that's the update for now...

Love, Bella
