1/11/11

Lois and I return to the hospital on Thursday. I will be doing new labs for my MELD score and Lo will be taking a necessary motility test to check muscle pressure in her esophagus. It sounds extremely uncomfortable. They will be feeding a tube up her nose, down her throat and into the esophagus. This is a preliminary procedure that needs to be done before they can start working on fixing her other problems.
We are still waiting to hear from the hospital about her biopsy. As you can probably imagine, this has been a strenuous time. The girls are a bit unsettled. Hopefully we will hear something soon. Waiting is always agonizing. I sincerely thank everyone for their comments and e-mails. It means so much to Lois and I.
My friends and family are sick right now, and many blogger buddies I know have their own illnesses happening in their lives. Some are very sick. It is hard to think about all those suffering without feeling like an emotional sponge. I am thinking of you all tonight. And I hope this new year brings you peace and health and happiness.
