Admission This Morning
Yesterday was a discouraging day. Kylie had an x-ray and then a visit to Dr. A's office because there hasn't been any progress with the medications that she has been on for a week now. Her x-ray was absolutely terrible--so bad that he needs to admit her. She is at so much risk for another awful c-diff infection. So, we are heading to Children's between 9 and 10 this morning for admission. He gave us until this morning so we could go home and prepare. The plan for now is surgery on Monday at 1:00 to have her colon removed. He has come to the point where he feels there is nothing else we can do. Yesterday afternoon, he was going to put in a call to the motility docs in Ohio, send them her x-ray, and see if they had any other suggestions. These next few days could be very difficult and we would so appreciate your prayers. They plan to put in an ng tube to give Kylie the medicine needed for her clean-out before surgery on Monday. We will be leaving home soon and will keep you posted as to what progresses throughout the day.

How frustrating..we are praying today that something would be discovered, this mystery solved, for you guys as you head back to Childrens, and for Kylie in the coming days as surgery approaches.
I hope that you can get some rest and peace today.
Love Karrie
