We made it to Akron Children's Hospital after a somewhat hectic morning.  Thankfully, we didn't have to pull Elliott out of school because school was canceled already. Hopefully we will find that all is okay with Elliott.  He's probably going to need bloodwork this afternoon in order to find out what's going on.  When we get back, we are going to see Lizze's Grandfather.  Please God, let this afternoon go well.

Shortly after Gavin arrived home, Lizze's mom called to say she would be swinging back around to pick him up. Apparently, power was out at work for her and so she was able to pick up Gavin and bring him home.  Thank God for that amazing twist of fate. I honestly wasn't sure how today was going to go. Thankfully, we won't have to find out. 

Hurricane Sandy caused enough damage in Canton Ohio that there is no school today.  Are you freaking kidding me? WTF To make matters worse, we hadn't planned for this and now Gavin will be coming home for the day.  This has thrust everyone else into chaos and Lizze is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She has been so traumatized by Gavin's behaviors that the mere thought of him coming  home is to much.  I don't know how today is going to go but I'm trying to remain positive so that I can be what everyone needs me to be. Hopefully, we can pull through this unexpected turn of events.

It appears as though Elliott has developed a tree nut allergy.  He's complaining that his throat hurts every time he eats an almond. He then breaks out in these weird bumps, sorta like hives. This has been going on for awhile but with everything else going on, we hadn't put 2 and 2 together. We are calling his immunologist first thing in the morning. I'm really hoping he doesn't have a peanut allergy.
