So tonight around 4:40 I get a phone call while I was doing dishes and didn't know the phone was ringing. After I finish I listen to the voicemail and it is Vanderbilt's TrialNet
study calling with Emily's test results. That's odd!?!?!? I always get a letter in the mail, not a phone call. So I try to call back and I can't find the person who called me in the first place. Nevermind, I knew the person directing the study. I emailed her and within 3 min I had the phone call. Not the results I was expecting though...Emily tested positive for one of the 3 antibodies. The GAD65. Oddly enough all the other kids have been tested and they were all negative! Yet, I have 2 children on insulin pumps with Type 1 diabetes!!! Now I have one that is positive for the antibody and all we can do is wait for the 2nd blood draw on the 13th of December.
