Went to my GI specialist today, he wants me to stay on 10 mg of prednisone for the next 2 months then to taper off at an extremely slow rate, he's afraid we may need Imuran, well I'm afraid, I won't take that during pregnancy, so forget that idea. Anyway, all is ok here so far, I have good days and bad days with my crohn's. More good than bad so I'll go with that.

I got a call from my son's teacher. He didn't actually grade this year because he nowhere near meets the minimum requirements of grade 1 but they are putting him in grade 2. He's going to be tested for learning disabilities on July 30 so hopefully they can identify something in order to help this child learn. It's a struggle and I just hope that there is something we can do to help him.

His teacher also went on to congratulate me on my newest upcoming addition. She laughed and laughed and said she had to tell me how he told her the news. As my boy is always giving this woman a laugh in class. Now picture this 7 yr old doing this.

In class he holds up his hand, and wiggles all 5 fingers on his hand. She says, Yes E what can I do for you, are you having some trouble with math.

E says, Nope that's 5.

Teacher- Yah that's right

E- wiggles fingers again

Teacher- Yah, what's this supposed to mean

E- There's going to be 5 of us, (very sarcastically says) "she's having another one" and rolls the eyes.

Well I couldn't stop laughing. That kid is foolish!
