Busy, Busy,Busy

Wow it's been awhile since I have actually had the time (or the mind) to sit down and do an update. The last few weeks have been jam packed with doctor appointments at least one test a week at Children's Hospital in Knoxville and then just the typical everyday therapy, colds, teething...etc.

Lets see where do I start? First of all we added a new Dr. to our on- going list... a GI Specialist. He was very nice, but he ordered a whole bunch of tests. Just to be on the safe side... never can be to careful. Those words make me crazy. Anyway, first she had a "PH Probe Study" she done well with that test. The next week we go to the hospital for an "Upper GI" once again easy test shes a trooper! Week 3 here we are again ...this time we have to have an "Stomach Emptying Scan" which is a series of 3 pictures that take 30sec. but have to be spaced out 3 hours apart! What???? Mind you all these test are at 6 or 7 in the morning and me and Ella have to find something to do for each hour in between pictures. This is great... well the first hour we had breakfast, yummy hospital food always a treat. Then the second hour we take a nice stroll over to the doctors offices to update my planner with more appointments .Then finally the third hour was here...god heard our prayers and the gift shop was open!!!! It was Ella's favorite I'm sure because she got a toy and a Binky! What more could a girl ask for?

On Monday June 11 she will be having a "Mod. Barium Swallow" hopefully this will be the last of the test. Then we will meet with the surgeon on June 20 ... the good one! Yes they accepted us! Thank the lord! LOL! And hopefully we will be having surgery by the end of the month!!! She will also be getting tubes in her ear at the same time she gets her feeding tube. I'm just ready to get all this over.
