Ellie had a slow weekend. She had tiny bits of milk on Saturday, but was sick that night and they stopped the feeding. By this morning, there was still some milk in her belly, which means that it is not moving through her system as it should. A nice poop yesterday was encouraging the something is moving through, but not quite as much as we'd all like.
We will be discussing this at some point this morning with Dr. Jacsik, Ellie's surgeon here at Children's who is coordinating her care. She has gotten some medication to help her bowels start working correctly, but still vomited this morning.
Unfortunately it happened just after the very nice nursing students had finished getting her vital signs and playing dress me up Ellie in the prettiest outfit that they could find:
"Oh, isn't she cute!"
Bleeaaahhh!!!
Nice timing, kiddo!!
We're not sure what is on the horizon for next steps, but still have ultimate confidence in the way that Ellie is being treated.
Patience.
