Health Update


OUCH these rotten teeth have GOT to hurt!!

We have been having fun tramping around the countryside having health checks and treatments over the past few weeks.



This little lady found that flower in our
 garden AFTER Christmas!!!
Dentist visits are finally done. Warrior and Princess both received normal fillings for a few cavities each. Buttons received a clean bill of health for his cute little teeth.


Treasure on the other hand was in need of some serious work. Unfortunately she is terrified of the drills, tools, needles, even the cottonbud with the numbing gel on it! So we had to wait to have her work done by a pediatric dentist who could sedate her. She ended up with having two visits requiring the removal of 5 teeth that were all infected, 3 crowns, and 4 fillings. Poor thing has been doing so much better with all that pain and infections cleaned up!
 



This is what our little buttons looked like his
2nd day in Canada
A visit to the eye doctor revealed a few things we weren't expecting. The oldest three children had glasses in Lithuania with an eye condition mentioned on their medical files. Nothing we couldn't deal with. After their exam they all came away with better than normal eyesight, no evidence of the condition, and no need for glasses at all! Princess was disappointed with the no glasses, I think she saw them as a fashion statement!


Next in line were medical checks where there are a few concerns that need further looking into with specialists visits and blood tests to be done. 

This is what our little heart stopper looks
like after 6 months of Family LOVE!!!



As for general health everyone seems to be avoiding colds and bugs. Buttons has completely lost his chesty cough and is no longer on asthma medication. Treasure is now trying a gluten free diet to control her tummy cramps which is making an improvement to her daily health. Princess and Warrior are just invincible!



Here's to a healthy 2015!
