So much better

I just spoke with the surgical resident.  She approved an increase in Emma's tube feeds, which means Emma gets a break from the IV tube!!! YAY!

Now, I say "gets a break" because the IV is still in, it's just not being used at the moment.  We did need it for morphine a little bit ago (the other stuff alone wasn't cutting it).

And this increase from the J tube is only if she tolerates it.  If her gut isn't ready, she'll "dump," and we're back to the IV.

But she had a brief period this morning where the only cord or tube that was attached to her was the feeding!  We actually got down on the floor and played!!

I've even gotten a couple smiles, and the old "Mama" sign!!

But then she needed some morphine, so we're back on a pulse ox, but at least she's resting comfortably.

Thank you so much for all the prayers and meals and visits and everything!  The Body of Christ is absolutely an amazing blessing, thank you thank you thank you.

His faithfulness is Great.
