My Montage 10/23/09
Zachary had an AWESOME night.. They gave him Go-litley at 4pm last night thinking he would have results. He did great until 4:30am and got up to do is duty. Yes, 12 hrs later.. But know every 2 hrs he has been going. The DRS want 3 clear stools before he can eat and before they will stop the go-litely.
Zachary’s Kidney numbers have not changed either, He is sitting at 2.2-2.3 which is good.. His Liver and spleen are also not as swollen and his labs numbers are almost normal!! Yipeee!!
Zachary’s tummy which was 67cm yesterday is now down to 62cm!! Another Yipeeee!!! The bad news is he is still up 3 lbs in his weight, his Kidney is still not able to get rid of the fluid on its own. The DRS upped his Lasix to give his kidney a little kick.
Zachary has also not been hooked up to his feeds for 2 days and has not tolerated his feeds full strength for about 5 days.. We are talking about starting him on TPN Which is a nutrition that he would go through his Dialysis catheter. Until he can tolerate his feeds again
Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers, This is going to be a long road.. But everyday when I see him smile I know that God has a plan and everything is going to be OK.
