Just an update on the newest issue...a week or two ago, we noticed that Reilly had these weird lines in her fingernails, close to the cuticle. Well, Friday, one of her fingernails came off, at the line. Today, another one started to come off. She now has these lines in three of her toenails and all fingers except her thumbs and one pinkie. Yesterday, I took her to the pediatrician, who was not certain as to what the cause could be. After consulting with her GI doctor, it is most likely a biotin deficiency as a result of her liver condition. This can apparently cause your issues with nails and hair, among other things. SO, she will start on a biotin supplement.
On a lighter note...we are going to do a Painting with a Twist Benefit at the shop in Gretna on Nov. 30. Please come join us and don't forget to pre-register online.
One more thing...we have a benefit party planned for January 14, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. at the Old Fireman's Hall in Westwego. Save the Date!!! More information to follow...
