Hi Everyone!

I hope you’re all staying safe and well.

It’s certainly been an interesting month to say the least and will glad to be moving into October. Let’s just say there’s been alot of not so good behaviors from both girls and they’ve kept us busy and stressed. We try to remind them that we love them but their actions still require suitable consequences. Hoping they will make better choices moving forward!

Had an endoscopy and colonoscopy on the 15th and got biopsy results back from upper endoscopy; she confirmed Autoimmune Atrophic Gastritis. This is something that’s been suspected for quite a few years and finally confirmed. Will be starting Iron infusions through hematology and regular B12 shots through local primary finally as well! No word yet about Colonoscopy so we shall see. Dr. Connolly thinks AIAG is a reason I have chronic Anemia. Will see if it’s the only one.

On a different note has anyone seen this article? I thought it would be interesting:
