Dates for Going to Ohio!

We have just recently been contacted with our dates for Kylie's motility testing in Columbus, OH....August 23-27. We have been waiting for months to hear and so it finally good to be able to do some planning. We will fly out of Omaha on Sunday, August 23. On Monday the 24th, Kylie will be admitted to the hospital in the morning. Doctors will review her history and will get her all prepped for the motility testing which will take place on Tuesday the 25th. According to the packet of information I received, the motility testing can take up to 8 hours (she will be sedated). On Wednesday morning, the 26th, another shorter test will be performed called anorectal manometry. Following this test, Kylie will spend the rest of the day resting and recovering. Depending on how she is doing they may or may not keep her until Thursday. We will then fly back to Omaha late in the day on Thursday the 27th.

We plan to take our computer so we can keep everyone posted on how the week progresses. We are glad to be moving forward with getting Kylie more help and hopefully by the end of the year following one more surgery here in Omaha, she will be able to get rid of her ileostomy.
