Yuri's New Born Screening

 Yuri is now a month and a week old. I got the result of his new born screening. New born screening is an advisable way to see if the baby has a possible disease like Congenital hypothyroidism, Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Galactosemia, Phenylketonuria, G6PD Deficiency. Of course as a father, I want to make sure that all things are good and well for my son. We made sure that he gets the screening so that we'll know if there's something wrong, we can do something immediately to cure it. I was really nervous when I went to the hospital to check for the results. By the time I got to the hospital, I felt like I don't want to get it because it might have a negative outcome, but I realized that if I don't get the result and later found out that he has serious disease, I will not forgive myself for being so coward to see the result. When I got the result and signed all the papers that needs to be signed, the smile on my face was automatic to see the result of my son's screening-all were negative. The moment I got home, I told my wife about the result, she was very happy because we are both hoping that Yuri is fine and healthy. Now we are planning to complete Yuri's immunization and will give him anything he need in order for him to be healthy.
