We're heading north!!!

I hold in my hand the authorization from our insurance company for Ashley to be seen by the Doctor at Cincinnati Children's Hospital!!! It feels like we started this process months ago, in reality it has only been one month.

The insurance would not approve the week long bowel clinic until she is seen by the Doctor at CCH. Hopefully, tomorrow we will find out when the consultation will take place.

After reviewing Ashley's records, the Doctor in Ohio wants her to have two more tests done. One test is not comfortable and requires Ashley to have only clear liquids for a full 24 hours. I am waiting to hear back from the nurse in Ohio to see if that test can be performed here at home or if it has to be done in their facility. I think I could control her better on a 24 hour fast at home, but we will do whatever is best for Ashley.

We really appreciate all your prayers!!! Please be in prayer that the scheduling will all work out. I feel like after getting past this hurdle, anything else will be simple.
