pulmologist visit tomorrow

Just a word of prayer from everyone would be really appreciated.  We’ve had a lot of “asthma activity” from both boys the past couple months, they go see their doctor tomorrow and she is new.  We miss our old one, but she’s in Chicago now.  Zack especially is coming under fire because we didn’t even know at the time he was having an asthma flareup (at their last appointment) so hopefully we will get better at identifying his signs.  Also, she is very concerned about his weight.  He has always been lean, but now he’s not even keeping to his own weight gain curve and she fears cystic fibrosis.  I don’t think it is, as he doesn’t appear to have the symptoms, but she wants to test him just to rule it out.  We’ve been trying to fatten him up for winter, but he’s good at just eating until he’s not hungry anymore.  And we’ve tried (well, read that I’ve tried) to be better at packing a snack for school.  So let’s see if our efforts pay off.  I’ll know tomorrow….
