This is the story of Eleanor Brogan who was born in April 2006. She was born missing 90% of her small bowel and 20% of her large bowel. This made her "Short Gut" or "short bowel", hence the name of the blog. Currently she is being treated by Children's Hospital Boston. She was the 23rd child to go on the new lipid for TPN, called Omegaven. Which has saved her liver, kept her off the transplant list and we believe saved her life.

She has an aunt in Freeport, also a doctor, who would recommend Cheez-its as the next step in the feeding plan.
Mmmmm Cheezits! normally I would say - GET YOUR OWN BOX... but for Ellie - I'll share :)
That was really funny, Aunt in Freeport. To make it a three-fer, I'll buy her her own box and have it waiting for her in when she rolls into town.
Next step: Frito chili pie!
Hi Brogan Family! Ellie is absolutely adorable and we're so glad to hear she's doing so well.
Abby, I've been trying to e-mail you but my e-mails keep being returned because your e-mail thinks they're spam. Maybe if you e-mail me first then I can reply to you?
We are really looking forward to meeting your family next month and Nora can't wait to meet her super hero Ellie!
