The road ahead

Tomorrow is a big day for the *Lost and Tired* family.

Gavin will endure his 8th antibody infusion in the morning.  Lizze's father is kind enough to sit with Gavin tomorrow because Lizze and I can't be there.  Gavin's pretty excited that Grandpa is going to take him.

While Gavin is receiving the antibodies he needs because he has no immune system of his own,  Lizze and I will be with Emmett.

Emmett has his first appointment with the Rheumatologist in the morning.

He was referred there by his immunologist because she is concerned he may have Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis.  I think that Lizze and I both share this concern because Emmett complains about his joints and they are often inflamed and hot to the touch.

There is also a chance that this could explain,  to at least some degree,  his fevers.

Lizze and I both want to be there for this appointment and Gavin is okay with that.

Lizze isn't really in good shape and attending this appointment will likely cause her even more pain and discomfort.

While I offered to go alone,  it would take a great deal more than pain to keep her from being with her kids at an appointment like this.  I don't really stand a chance of convincing her to take care of herself and stay back.

Hopefully,  tomorrow will go off without a hitch and all will be ok.  We have a ton of other appointments this week so it would be nice to start off on the right foot.  :-)
