Cautiously Optimistic

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." Albert Einstein

I've grown weary.

Weary of seeing him miserable.
Weary of hearing him scratch and sigh.
Weary of applying expensive, useless creams.
Weary of measuring multiple antihistamines that don't work.
Weary of suspecting every crumb that passes his lips.
Weary of traditional medicine that simply addresses symptoms not the root of the problem.

Just plain weary.

"The fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."

The Lord has really been pushing us closer to Him in many ways this month but especially in this matter. We've prayed for answers, for directions, for other options. I've read several books, done research online, picked other people's brains.

Out of the blue, a door appears of which I never would have dreamed.

Will it be the answer? Will this doctor find the key to helping our sweet little boy? I don't know. But I feel a sense of peace that I haven't felt in months and I am cautiously optimistic.
