I heard from the reporter from the San Antonio Express Newspaper this week. She told me that the article she wrote about Joshua and his medical condition would appear in the Life Section of this coming Sunday's newspaper (July 30). I thought I'd pass that along to everyone so you could look for a copy and check out the article along with us. We are so excited!

Some not so great news - we found out that Joshua's bloodwork earlier this week showed he had elevated levels of sodium again and we need to follow up with his glandular specialist doctor. They may increase some medication that helps him retain fluids. Right now he is taking two of those pills at bedtime. They make him look all swelled up. But we continue to have trouble keeping him from becoming dehydrated. It seems like the only way to keep him hydrated is to get him all puffed up with the fluids. It's a viscious cycle.

Anyway, thanks to all for thinking of us and praying for us!

Love,

Vanessa
