I finally heard from my OB concerning Andrew's chromosome tests and the news is that there is no news. She told me that they weren't able to get the cells to grow enough to be able to run his chromosomes, so we won't know whether there were any chromosomal abnormalities that could have caused the kidney and testicle issue.

Through school, I always had a glimpse of what was coming next (even if but just a small glimpse). In … [Read more...]
