Hi everybody

We're back from the hospital..

It was all a bit wierd actually...

They did warn us that the tests are NOT considered accurate but gave an "indication" to which he was allergic to...

Brazil nut came back negative
Almond came back negative
Hazelnut came back negative .........

Peanut - came back grade 1 - this is what I dont understand ... when he was tested last time (age 3 1/2) he was off the scale and graded as high as you can get... the grades are 1 to 4 - he was considered 4+...now he's a 1 ... they all told me that he wouldnt grow out of it due to its severity at the other clinic.... I dont see how he could have dropped to such a low grading from as high as it gets to a "minor" allergy in just 3 1/2 years

I would love to believe the tests but I'm really concerned that they've got it wrong.

Oh, and they didnt test him for cashews - no chinese for me tonight then

So, all in all, I'm not sure what to think! Am I being pessimistic and over cautious etc , should I believe the new tests

I'm more confused than ever I'm off to search the internet to see if theres something I havent already read - I doubt it but its worth a try.

Somewhat good news I guess then Karen.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAZEL!!!!!!

 

[medicalman]

Thankyou for all your mother's day wishes, had a lovely day.
Went to chuch as olivia was being confirmed and then we went out for a meal with friends who's daughter has also been confirmed.
Its cold and snowing here today, its not sticking though
That sounds awfully confusing for you Karen, i would be like you and think that they had got the tests wrong, good luck with Ellis, cant give you any advice as we haven't had to deal with allergy's. Must be very difficult!!

Lovely piccies Andy

Happy Birthday Hazel

Grea pics of your family, your daughter is soo pretty, she looks just like our neighbours daughter.
Is Nifty Fiftys a new chain of restuarants or do they have them all over the US. Olivia liked the look of it, are there any in Orlando area, just thinking for our next trip over before the cruise

Heather, I bought a red dress for semi formal night, maybe we need to wear them and take a pic for the Dawg.

Okey Dokey.

 

[GOS]

I think Mike's getting spring fever. That's one ugly snowman honey. He does have nice eyes though.

Mike has never looked better.

I remember Rick Springfield! Went to his concert when I was twelve. My mom took me and three other girls and just dropped us off in front of the Civic Center. I wouldn't drop my DD and friends off in front of a Civic Center now!
Anyway, as you remember Rick Springfield also play Dr. Noah Drake on General Hospital at that time (I didn't get ABC only NBC back then). At the concert there were several ladies of a certain age with I General Hospital t-shirts!
What a memory!

That movie Music and Lyrics reminded my a lot of Rick Springfield!

Picture please.

Hey, I actually get to talk to Heather & Karen "real time".

How are the uk girls?

 

[Tart Annihilator]

Mike has never looked better.

I think Andy's right.
If we painted him green, he'd look more like "Planky"

 

[GOS]

Arrived home a little bit ago. We wound up going to Nifty Fiftys for a change. This place just opened up within the past few months and we just heard about it in our local newspaper this past Wednesday, since it was Hazel's birthday, she said, "Let's give it a try." It was nice, the food, atmosphere and service was all quite good. We might even go back for my birthday next month. I have attached 3 pics below. Hazel received a special sundae for her birthday and Angelina asked if she could have a hat to decorate for herself. That's the inner kid coming out in her..........

As usual, I was the picture taker, not the picture takee.........so no pics of me...........

Lovely photo's. Looks like you had a great time.

 

[GOS]

..........And they call it Puppy Love.............

If only it was puppy love?

 

[GOS]

i'll take marie osmond.

She was on Dancing with the Stars recently wasn't she and she did really well? Of course I did see Donny in the audience swoon.

 

[GOS]

hope he hasnt fallen over to the dark side.

No chance of that Mike

 

[GOS]

I'm seriously afraid to post over there with Sean's sign he made.

Go on...dare you!

Hey, I actually get to talk to Heather & Karen "real time".

How are the uk girls?

Hi Robin..I'm fine...it's taken me a bit of time to catch up. Oh..and I had to take a phone call. How are you doing today?

 

[Tart Annihilator]

I'm fine. I don't really like being off work unless I'm on vacation.


It's 61 degrees now. Maybe I should go for a walk.

 

[Tart Annihilator]

Mike just called. He's on his way home from work. I guess I'll go look like I'm working.

I really do have a lot of things I could get done while I'm off.

Talk to you later.

As far as I know they only have a few stores in the Philadelphia area right now. I also found out some interesting news about Nifty Fiftys. My brother Rob called me this afternoon and told me that his wife's brother is one of the primary owners of Nifty Fiftys. I wish I had known that before we went, maybe we could have gotten a discount............

 

[Verandah Man]

Hazel said to say THANKS again for all the birthday greetings............
