Baby Check Ups!

All is going well on the medical side of things at Angel House this week. Dr. Jack recently saw the babies for their monthly well check. Little ones should be seen by a physician regularly during the first year to chart growth and monitor health. Everyone is well and Dr. Jack and Marcia are pleased.

Dr. Jack ordered a TSH blood test for Renato due to his weight. A thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) blood test is used to check for thyroid gland problems. He would like to be sure there are no thyroid concerns for our little guy. I will update about this when the lab reports the results. Please pray the results come back showing Renato is healthy!

Hermann smashed his right index finger on Sunday. Dr. Jack is closely watching the injury and reapplying clean dressings daily. As of today, Hermann’s finger looks fine and is healing. Praise God for this and Dr. Jack’s care!

Blessings!
