Oh, how I would love to get my hands on a diverse set of statistics ranging from holistic treatments, diet change, surgery, medications, and plainly see how much each was effective. Since there's such a range of actual illness chunked together as IBD, it's no surprise that some are cured by diet, some by surgery, some aren't cured, some seem to grow out of their problems, and so on.
Isaac is talking more and more. I'm looking forward to being able to talk about his experience with him. But as a parent, you know, I also want to savor the young years. So no hurry, Isaac, but it's nice to see you stringing sentences together.
Poopwise, you're doing great. We have a fun time stuffing delicious stews in your face, but we know you like the extra attention. Also, your mealtime prayers are the cutest. After a few more months maybe we'll understand better what you're saying!
Isaac, one thing you're going to understand by the time you are a teenager is science. Because a large portion of how you're being raised depends on the scientific method. You're going to know all about control, careful experiment. And just wait until we can get you to fill out your food input/output diary.
Love,
your parents.
We love you, Isaac! So does Dr. McDougall! :D -aunTelcia and Uncle Jon
