Over the weekend, we took the plunge and went in for the next rotation of coconut oil, egg yolk, and banana, then a friend found me some chayote squash, so we quickly added that in as well. This rotation was freaking me out. Mostly because I want coconut oil, and egg so badly, and also it feels like these are tougher foods to tackle (at least in my mind). I seriously had to talk myself out of a panic attack on Saturday, before giving him the coconut oil, and then Adam ever so nicely reminded me, that really the worse thing that could happen is that he would get sick, but God would help us through it, so really what did we have to lose? It's true, what did we have to loose? God loves Levi more than I do, so with that knowledge we can rest in His hands. And you know what? NOTHING happened. It was a teeny, tiny amount, but there was NOTHING!! There was also nothing with egg yolk (which he LOVED) and with banana today. 2 hours (almost to the minute) after the squash he woke up in the middle of his nap screaming, and I was preparing myself for the worst, but I went down, rocked him back to sleep, and he woke up an hour later happy as can be. But this my friends is only the beginning of my excitement, you see today after dinner Levi had his FIRST formed poop EVER in. his. life. I'm so sorry that you have to read about poop. But you see, this is HUGE. It means his body is working!! In the middle of my scariest rotation ever, God sends me a beautiful sign that He is healing his body. His promise of healing is coming true, we are seeing the signs!!! There may have been some tears tonight over poop. Happy, joyful tears, and I'm cool with that!!
Also...... today Levi started saying "Oh wow". Yes little buddy "OH WOW"!!
Tomorrow I give him coconut oil a little braver. Oh wow, what a day!
I am so happy for you and thankful for the progress!
