I'm sitting with JJ pumping for Bradley as I type this so excuse the typos :)

JJ is doing good. Had the IV Lock removed, taking the stickies off was the worst part. He is on iPad enjoying the expensive airplanes we promised to buy him on his flight simulator app for being so brave!! Ha! Darn apps with in purchase options!

Anyway i know a few of you have asked  how I knew something was up. By Gods grace, no joke,  I was able to put all of the peices together just yesterday. As soon as it added up I made a dr appt, we had the last appt yesterday.

The sign I saw were:

Excessive thirst - he drank 3 water bottles full of water Yesterdat park, then asked for more when we got home.
Peeing at night -crazy amounts just over the last few days. He wet the bed too... So not like him.
Lost 3 lbs. -only reason I knew this is new use he obsessed with calling out the numbers on the scale when he steps on. 5-1-7 (51lb 7oz) quickly became 4-7-3 etc.
He's always been super crazy about snacks and literally having to eat or get super sad/lethargic/whiny

I know God has a hand in all of this.

One of the main reasons I sort of alerted myself to this was because I college I babysat for a family . The young boy had similar symptoms as JJ. At the time the parents didn't know it, and they told me months later after they had moved. He used to drink a ton at night and then Pee a ton at night too. They told me in case he woke up etc.

Then a dear friends niece recently was diagnosed and it all got my wheels turning.

Thanks the Lord I had those past experiences and heard about my friends niece otherwise I may not have put it all together.

God is totally in control. Our nurse happens to be one of JJs friends' mom from the childcare at the gym.

So lots of good and things to be thankful for along the way.

We are still digesting our future but really just trying to understand how to keep him thriving.

He had some lunch and sugar numbers are back up which means more 'tummy pokeys' soon. Prayers for comfort
