Last night at 9:30 pm Anna Grace had her NG tube pulled - HOORAY! So, she ate by mouth all night long (11:00 pm, 2:00 am, 5:00 am & 8:00am). Her numbers were OK - not great but OK so the doctor is going to let her keep the NG tube out today. As long as she keeps eating then she doesn't have to have the tube put back in. The hard part about having the tube pulled is that now she has to take all of her medications by mouth - UGH - she is on 6 several times a day and let me say she does not like them! But, she seems to be refluxing less now that the tube is gone so that makes eating easier & better.
She had her echo & her chest x ray this morning. I haven't talked to the doctor yet about the results, but if everything looks OK with both of those & she continues to eat through the weekend then they are talking about sending us home Monday or Tuesday..... The doctors are making rounds right now so I'm sure I'll be hearing shortly.
Please cocntinue to pray for her eating and for wisdom for the doctors to know when she is ready to leave the hospital.
Also, please pray for achary. He has really started acting out recently - I know this has been very difficult for him.
