In addition to the surgery for his ptosis later this month,
Zane also has to undergo an endoscopy. For about a week, the additional fluids
from the Pedialyte seemed to significantly reduce his retching. Unfortunately,
it has returned. I thought—perhaps—the pediatrician would tweak some additional
things with him: medications, lengthening his feeding times, etc. But she’s
decided to go right to the endoscopy. Zane’s regular gastroenterologist does
not practice out of Children’s Hospital, so he has to see a new doctor this
time around. Zane will have a consult the day before the surgery and
anesthesia, then have the endoscopy at the same time. He and I will be in Denver for over a week.
Not sure what we’re going to do in between the surgery and the follow-up
appointment a week later, but we’ll figure it out.
As always, good thoughts and prayers are thoroughly
appreciated for Zane.
Always in my prayers!
ReplyDeleteAll my best to Zane, that sweetie. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteAll my love and good wishes go with you to Denver. I can't wait to see Zane when you get back. I sure hope the endoscopy helps with the retching.
