The surgeon who saw Charity yesterday stopped by and told us that he can rule out Hirschsprung's Disease!! That means that she will get all better now and stay out of here!!
We are waiting to hear from the doctor on the day shift to get a report about how things have progressed, but the surgeon wants to allow her to begin eating the milk Jamie is supplying for her. She looks so ready to eat! Hopefully, we will hear that she has been cleared to eat and that they will schedule a colonoscopy to see exactly what is going on.
I will update as soon as we talk to the doctor.
Meanwhile, they are still clearing her poo hole regularly. She is pushing out what she can when they are helping open things up a little. It seems like she is pretty well cleaned out right now, so let's bring in some fresh stuff (food!).
Keep the Poop Prayers coming! They are still working!
No, Charity is not sunbathing! They are stimulating her liver. It isn't a problem, but it happens if you haven't seen the sun yet!
I am so happy to hear this! Praise God!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I spoke with Fr. H and filled him in on things (hope you don't mind) since he doesn't read FB or your blog.
Lastly, we have a gift for Charity! Let us know when you're ready for visitors!!!!
Everything is public knowledge, so share away.
ReplyDeleteThanks in advance for the gift. I am sure she will love it! Hopefully, we will be home and ready for visitors soon!
CONGRATULATIONS!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing a healthy baby is!
I can't wait to meet the little one in person.
Any nursing problems, feel free to call me: I used to do counseling with La Leche League some years back.
My prayers are with the three of you!
