Today we went to Lung Center with hopes that we were only going to have to go there maybe once this summer and we would be done. Instead we were told that she lost weight and she wasn't growing any lung alveoli. I'm not quite sure how she can't be growing lung tissue since she is growing and there isn't a definitive way to tell. But what I can tell you is that Ava eats a ton of food and is very healthy with no signs of asthma. I forgot to mention to them that Ava was sick two weeks earlier with vomiting. We also want to go down in QVAR soon since that is typically what the protocol is. So we are going back three months from now. They also spoke of testing her when she is 5 for her lung capacity. We are really hoping to not be seeing very many specialists once Ava has her feeding out. Ava actually fluctuates weight between 28 and 30 lbs. She was 28 pounds today. She also is 3ft tall. In addition, she never runs out of energy and pretty much is running or walking all day long.
Thanking God for Ava's growth and praying for Ava to gain weight and eat healthy...
