Pathology

Pathology-What exactly is the major malfuntion? Are you understaffed? Are you under paid? Perhaps you took a vacation or maybe you are on strike? Whatever it is, can we please get those biopsy results? You see, we have a very hungry little baby who cannot eat until we know the results. She wails. This is not a baby who is fussy so that is really saying something. I know the person who is reading her results was off today, but this IS a hospital after all. Pathology is open 24 hrs a day. Cannot someone else read it?

We waited all day for the results. Hollyse waited all day. We are all a little irritable. I am afraid I am going to transform into ninja mommy if I have to see my baby cry for food much longer.

Dean and I could barely choke down our dinner knowing our baby is crying to eat. It just seems wrong to eat when she isn't. It has been 7 days since the poor baby ate for crying outloud.

In other news, the IV in her head gave out. So they put one in her foot, but that is going and now they are searching for another. The arterial line went today too. They quit trying for a PICC line. She is moving on doc. They put her in a regular crib today:))) It is the cutest little crib, Her nurse made it pretty and put all her cards around it. They haven't started feedings, and can't because pathology is on sabbatical apparently.

She has great bowel sounds. All very promising news. We are really feeling good and so are her doctors, nurses, and surgeon.

Please pray for her comfort. We know she is being fed thru her IV but it still hurts to have her root all over and cry to eat. It is just killing us.

Please pray for the results to come back , like now, in her favor. We know we are blessed and see Gods many mercies to us and to Hollyse but it is still very hard waiting and not knowing what is going to happen.

Be sure and thank our God for his great goodness in answering all your prayers. He has been so, so good to us. I am in awe. I really see a miracle unfolding and can't believe it is happening.



Because He lives,
Michelle
