Missing Daddy

John left for Australia today, has not been gone even 12 hours and we are all missing him more than words can say. I know, it has only been a few hours, but we are a darn good team! He will be away for 10 days, but I am super excited for him! Here is the website of what John will be experiencing if anybody is interested. http://www.parliamentofreligions.org/
Adina kept running to the door tonight saying, "Is daddy monster coming?" She calls him this when they play hide and seek. It will be a long 10 days for us all!
Before John left we went to Children's and had our blood drawn. Myself, John, and Oliver. John and I are being tested to see if we have the same variations on our genes that Oliver had. I know genetics are confusing. I will try to explain it how they did today. If John and I have the same differences as Oliver, they will not be concerned because John and I are healthy, so it is just a random change but not really indicative of anything. If only Oliver has this change however, it could help us greatly to better diagnose Oliver. It is not that we are hoping for this, because what they are looking for is not the best, but it would be nice to really have a better understanding of what is going on. Oliver had a blood and urine test today to check for a bunch of things. When they were putting the little urine bag on Oliver, Adina said to the nurse, "Hey doctor lady, I sure hope your not gonna give Oliber a shot down there. You're not, are ya?"
Adina came with us to help us all stay brave with our blood draws! We were told we would get the results in about 2-3 weeks. To translate that doctor talk for ya, it will most likely be 4-6 weeks or more. We just come to expect the extra long wait time and anything faster is a special little gift =) Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and are now in turkey detox! Night everybody. John, if you read this, WE MISS AND LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH!!! Have a blast and get some much much needed and deserved relaxation!
