To the Hospital

Tomorrow we leave for Denver to admit Zane into the hospital through the ER. While he has a happy moment or two once and awhile throughout the day, he is mostly miserable.

 

I’ve been in contact with his GI doctor about the possibility of the gastrostomy tube being the source of the problem. It’s certainly something they’ll investigate. Back in September—when he and I last visited Denver—I contacted the GI doctor’s nurse to see if they would see him in the office to measure whether he has the right sized button or not. She never called me back. I've been informed that she no longer works there. Thank goodness J Though the fellow told me it is highly unlikely the g-tube button size is the cause of his pain, my intuition tells me it might be part of the problem. We’ll see. Everything seemed to begin with the UTI three weeks or so ago. So it may be urology-related instead.

 

We’re not sure how long we’ll be up there. But hopefully they will be able to get to the bottom of what’s ailing Zane and find a solution.
