Ms. Bentley got her NG tube removed today. She is still not up to par on her bottle/milk intake and the Neonatologist believes that the 8FR feeding tube might be occluding her esophagus. 8FR is HUGE for Ms. Bentley's small throat. Now the ball is really in her court. Hopefully she will take the bottles better. If not, they might have to do a barium swallow study and have a smaller feeding tube re-inserted. So, in short, today was filled with lots of possibilities for tomorow. I know my baby girl is still in a lot of pain. We will be patient and give her all the time in the world that she needs to heal. Please keep her in your prayers.
We are praying you today, precious granddaughter. Eat, eat, eat!!!! One day, you will be in GeGe and Poppy's kitchen munching on fried okra and GeGe's chicken! Get stronger - you have a wonderful world yet to see!
ReplyDeleteWe love and are praying for all three of you!
Love and hugs!
