♫♪♬ We're Off To See The Pediatric Orthopedic Specialist! ♬♪♫

     Yes, you do detect a hint of sarcasm in the above title. It will be somewhat of an adventure but, not one of leisure. The doctor, that saw Nathan just two days ago, has made an appointment for my almost nine year old son to see a Pediatric Orthopedic Specialist tomorrow morning. What I found confusing was that even though no one at our physicians' office had not taken the time to call me with Nathan's lab results, evidently someone had thought it important enough to go ahead and schedule the referral appointment with the pediatric orthopedic specialist to determine the cause of the swelling in Nathan's hips. I am extremely thankful for that special someone that God used to help my son. 

     I am also grateful that my husband, whom has been fighting a high fever and is recovering from the flu, will be able to take Nathan's brother to school in the morning. Nathan and I will have to leave the house about thirty minutes earlier in order to make it to the specialist's office by our appointment. I am married to a responsible man and it means the world to me that I can always count on him. The father of my older two children had no problem leaving me to struggle with various decisions, situations and opposition while he did what he wanted, regardless of the consequences. I make sure to give thanks every day for God bringing my husband into my life.

     As you can see, I wandered off the intended subject. I ask that, no matter who you are or where you live, you keep our Nathan in your thoughts and prayers as we meet with the specialist that will help resolve the discomfort he is experiencing. Thank you for taking the time to follow our blog.
