But we won't be able to break for the length of time the public schools do as we have to factor in Dale's trips to Vanderbilt. We use normal off days to keep them from getting behind. On days we have to go to Vanderbilt they have those days off instead of normal off days.

Dale is going twice a month for I.V.I.G. infusions at Vandy as well as her other scheduled Doctor's appointments.

She has been fighting a bad sore for the last two months that won't heal. (Pyoderma gangrenosum if you would like to look it up on line). It is quite nasty and very painful. About 3% of Crohns patients develop these.

Author: dori [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 13:27:09 12/18/13 Wed Has she noticed any improvement of her symptoms with this treatment? I sure hope so, considering what you both have to go through to take her there. I keep you both in my constant prayers. God bless you!

as a whole with the I.V.I.G. infusions but the jury is still out as to whether it is worth it. We were told it would take some time before we could really discern the results so we are staying with it for now.

The main problem is that they dropped one of her meds. in order to take the infusions and we are now wondering whether this medication was keeping hers P.G. sores under control.

Thanks so much for your prayers.
