Nice News

We went out to see our new endocrinologist at the hospital yesterday and were delightfully surprised to see one of the fellows from Children's there! She is doing an elective here on the island and made sure to come in and examine Eleanor. We make fun of endocrine all the time as all of them are kind of nerdy and socially awkward, but they followed Eleanor with such care and compassion that we truly have nothing but love for them. Karine is a sweetie and took a vested interest in our baby girl - she even did a presentation on her!

Anyway, it was especially good to see her as she had nothing but good news for us. Eleanor's testosterone and DHEAS levels are still negligible (means cancer is more likely to be negligible too) AND her estrogen and bone age came back normal! No precocious puberty after all! They think the breast buds and pubic hair are both side effects of the Mitotane, and will be reversed once she stops taking it. Kinda weird, but they aren't worried so we aren't going to worry! We really like not having to worry, especially with her scans coming up next month. It send like everything is where it should be and we can continue living our "normal" life.

Like figuring out how to stand up. Nice normal things.
