Allergy Testing

Luke had to go through testing to see which antibiotics he is allergic to, so they can find the ones he can use if he ever has a need to be treated. Since his leukemia and diminished immunity can lead to infections, knowing which antibiotics to useis important. The testing involves "scratching" the skin with various antibiotics, followed by intradermal injections. Luke did cry and was saddened during the test, but came through ok. We're waiting for the results as this blog posting is being written. Thanks to God for giving us all strength and courage. We all need it. It hurts us to see him having to endure all of this. We pray for him.
