Stomach bug, road to recovery...

Poor Alex had a rough go of it and he's finally on the road to recovery. He had a nasty stomach bug in April. It lasted for 6 solid days. Puking, pooping water, you name it. They think it was retrovirus. He lost 9 pounds! That's a third of his little body weight!

He's back up to 25 pounds now, but that puts him in the 15th percentile for weight among kids his age, and the 85th percentile for height! Guess for now, he's our string bean, but we're working to fatten him back up.
