So we we made it to Adriana's Gi app on time on wend. We went down to do blood work which of course she screamed and cried and most likely scared the rest of the kids waiting outside to get there blood drawn. She was then complaining the whole time after we left the lab. We then went up to her app and saw her GI doctor. Dr. C was there and they weighed her which she weighs 15Pd's 12 oz and is not growing as fast. may I remind you they had gone down on her sugars from 15% to 13%. I told Dr.C that I was trying to feed her baby food and explained why and he told me that I could continue if I would like. He told me it's best to keep her interested in food and to eventually get her eating. He told me just to watch her ostomy output. Of course he told me her ostomy out put is low so he would not be worried if it went up to about 200'cc a day. Right now she is putting out about 100 a day which is not much according to him. He told me to get her feeding therapy which I am working on. He said her Bili is coming down the so are her other liver numbers. He told me she looked great and that we did not have to come back until a month. So it went good but I also told him I was frustrated because she does not eat much and I felt like it wasn't getting her any where. I mean I wouldn't really consider this rehab because there isn't much food getting into her stomach. Of course she did hate the Ng tube but I think it was really helping her. He didn't bring up placing it back in but I sure will ask him because I know it would really help. She was only on 1cc continuously but of course her liver was much sicker at that time so I am wandering how much can she tolerate now? It has been in the back of my mind for a few days now.
