Journal entry by Rebecca DeGaro

Yesterday JR had his colonoscopy it was scheduled for 2:45 pm but thankfully they were able to move up his procedure to 11am!! Our little man was an absolute Champ!! He did the prep with no issues it was a quick clean out process thankfully and he was able to get a good nights sleep! 

The Drs found no concerns with JRs esophagus and colon everything looked perfect all tissue is healthy and zero inflammation which means that his medications are not causing his diarrhea. Which is great because his meds are working so great for him and didn’t want to have to change them up!!! 
They did take multiple biopsies of the esophagus and intestines to check for deficiencies. We should have these results back next week some time and hope we are able to get some answers!!

Thank you all for the prayers for our Warrior!! They definitely worked and are so greatly appreciated!!
