today we had an appointment with GI clinic at the children's hospital. we have a really great doctor/dietician team and our visit was very productive. i thought i was going to have to go on a crusade to have them help me with our food trials, thinking i would have to hang out in the ER every time i did one. no, no, no. i was certainly greatly misinformed by our 100 year old grumpy crusty allergist. our GI doctor indicated that they are going to set up a weekly visit to a day treatment clinic in the hospital. we will go every tuesday, have ida worked up with a IV and test a food in very small doses. hooray! what a relief i won't be doing this on my own.
the first food we are going to try is carrots. if it works {which we believe carrots will} she may turn into a big orange girl. kind of like that girl from willy wonka... violet beauregarde, except she turned purple.... so get ready for pictures of ida with a slight orange tinge to her complexion, especially her nose. yee-haw!

My mom turned orange from drinking too much carrot juice. Especially the palms of her hands. Good luck!
good luck with everything...sounds like a lot to go through...
i'll be praying for her!!! i am so glad you don't have to sit in emergency aka germ city.
Great news. I have a few pictures of Brady with an orange glow. Carter says she will have good eyes, hehe!
Hey. It's like the Ida Burton clinic already exists! now you don't have to bother with starting a foundation or anything.
Good luck, Little Idie!
