The plan

Jillian did pretty well over night. She tried ripping her tube out this morning. With the bridal in it is not taped to her face (it is taped behind her ear) so she can get her whole hand around it. She screamed like crazy from that... one more reason the bridal is not my favorite thing.
Rounds this morning brought a packed house. Monday is doctor change day so we had last weeks and this weeks doctors all in the room. (I like new docs a lot!). Here is the plan:
1. Jillian has not pooped since Friday and is getting increasingly upset when she has to pass gas. We have decided to give her a suppository and a laxative. Someone may need to save us from the poop later today!
2. Jillian's blood work was off in a few different areas when we were admitted. It looked better yesterday but still not back to normal yet. They are looking at running those labs either tomorrow or Wednesday.
3. The first thing they want done is for speech to come evaluate her swallowing. I don't expect this to do much because they have watched her eat once before, but it will be good to have done second  time.
4. They are talking about having a swallow study done if speech thinks it is a good idea. Im game for this:)
5. They have currently decided that we are not doing a PH study, at least today. We will see what tomorrow's idea is about this test. They said that because she is not eating anything but negligible water they don't think this test will show anything right now.
6. We had an appointment to see genetics tomorrow. They are going to call down to genetics to see if we can just do the appointment as a consult in our room.

Currently we are here until at least tomorrow. Our new attending looked at me and said she will be here all week and hopefully we leave before she does...
