We saw the oncologist again today. Nash's liver enzymes (GGT) are trending upward, albeit slowly. This is not the result we were hoping for today, but it does not mean that Nash necessarily has liver disease.

The doctor has scheduled a liver biopsy for next Monday, 8/15. I previously wrote that this test should be conclusive, but that is not the case. There is a significant chance that the biopsy will not be helpful. So Monday we might have more information, but perhaps not. For now we wait.

I'd like to take this opportunity to tell everyone a little bit about Nash. He has a voracious appetite -- he's breastfeeding every 3 hours (at times even more frequently) and we're often having to top him off with formula. He has developed a wicked case of baby acne. I learned today that his cousins named one of their seamonkeys "Nash," which I thought was pretty sweet. Cade and Shay (big brother and sister) are quite fond of the little guy and often hover over him and ask if they can touch him. Mommy, of course, knows best how to calm him down when he wails.
