family history

it can really bite

I know that many people and many docs will tell you that appendicitis is not hereditary. But I don't believe it. I've lost count as to how many of Isaiah's family have had it. I feel like it's an inevitable for at least one of my kids. So every time Gareth complains of a stomach ache I get so so worried. And last night and this morning we have... stomach ache complaints. So far, it's pretty vague and not i a focused area like I would expect it to be. And there are no other symptoms. So, I suspect it's nothing more than too much cake at the birthday party and him just having a cold. But I hate that I have to have that extra worry.
