Drew is one tough monkey!

For those of you that have been asking about Drew...Thank you! He is doing fine. A little background for those of you that don't know what is going on. In October, Drew started spiking fevers and breaking out in hives. I watched his diet, clothing, etc for allergies but that wasn't it. I thought maybe it was related to viruses during cold and flu season but that wasn't it. I took him to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and they did 12 different tests (blood and urine) and found that his kidney tests were off. That set the alarms off in my head and freaked me out quite a bit because Neil has Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) and the boys have a 50% chance of having it too (something I have always known) so Drew has been referred to a pediatric nephrologist at Children's. We haven't been yet but I wanted to let you all know what was going on and let you know we are doing okay. Thanks for checking on us! :) I will keep you posted! Hugs!
