It is Saturday night and I am typing this from Little Rock, Arkansas. I decided Friday at 11am to come and got here at 11Pm last night! We are taking the weekend to see Tom’s sister’s family, and some dear friends that we have from living here for 6 years.
I heard from Dr Higgins on Friday morning. ALL OF TRENT’S BIOPSIES WERE NORMAL! That is GREAT news, except when you were hoping for a nice bacteria or hidden parasite that could be killed with a pill! So, that leaves us doing a little fishing. This weekend, Trent is taking a medicine that would help him if it is irritable bowel syndrome. So far, he still feels lousy. I call the Dr. on Monday and he may then try a new medicine. Eventually, he will try a medicine that would be for treating Crohn’s even though there is no signs of it in his GI system that are visible yet!
I am reminded again that while God is NEVER late, he is seldom early. Please ask Him to give us clarity in His perfect timing…but before we get on the plane on MAY 29th if he would! 
Our wonderful new friend and Texas pediatrician is in contact with an infectious disease specialist, as well. He has been so helpful and is not giving up yet! Pray for wisdom for him (Dr Wiley) and Dr Higgins, the gastro specialist.
I don’t feel desperate yet, but I can here the clock ticking. It is hard because I so badly want to go home with Trent feeling much better.
Meanwhile, we will enjoy our time with friends and family this weekend and then head back to Abilene on Monday or Tuesday for the next step….pray that we have one!
Thank you again for your prayers.
AND PLEASE PRAY BIRTHDAY BLESSINGS FOR MY DAUGHTER, KENDALL WHO IS TURNING 13!!!! ON THE DAY YOU RECIEVE THIS!!!!!
Thank you,
Valerie
