I believe that this could be used to create an extremely interesting view on chronic illness. <br />If you could contact me at bpmdragon@gmail.com, just let me know if this is OK with you.<br />Thank you for your consideration.

What an incredible thing they did for her and made her so happy. I wanted to ask you a question. I saw where you said she was still of TPN, just on IV D15??. My daughter has just had her 2nd bowel resection. We are giving her ElaCare again. She was on TPN for the last 2 1/2 years. We are hoping the ElCare works as she has been off TPN for 2 weeks. She isn't tolerating the feeds at night so we are trying to get all her calries in during the day from 5 a.m. until 7 p.m. I was wondering if your daughter still has her line? I didn't see it in the pictures. Since she is getting IV I was wondering how she got it. I pray she will be able to stay off. TPN has been very hard on my Annabel, Trisomy 18 and she is 7 years old. She has had multiple blood infections and they have been life threatening. I am so ready to get this line out, we are hoping in about 2 more weeks if she still tolerates feeds and needs no IV's antibiotic. Thank you for any information you can offer.

Connor just started Kindergarten and at milestones like this we are reminded of how far we've come and of those that helped along the way. Thanks so much for leading us to Omegaven and all the support on Connor's journey through with short gut. Your whole family is an inspiration and we are forever grateful. <br /><br />The Maruska'sThe Maruska'snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25914405.post-46714729504132570582012-08-05T21:04:40.382-04:002012-08-05T21:04:40.382-04:00Fabulous.
