Oh dear, Karmi did not digest any of the milk fed to her via nasogastric tube earlier today.  I don't know what the implications are or how they will treat the problem.

If you are selling those, I'd buy.

Hope it's nothing major

UPDATE:  Karmi is now on a regular mechanical ventilator only, but is not yet coping.  Her sats drop to the low 70s at times.  She has to work harder for every breath.  I hope our little fighter manages better in a while.  They will feed some "Neocare" instead of milk through the nasogastric tube to see if she can digest it.  Milk did not work.  Wish I had more good news and that she was improving faster.

Nope, they had to get her back on the oscillator in a hurry.

What about that "milk" they give newborns if the mom can't produce enough? Or is that the stuff they are giving her?

Pre-nan?

They've tried the easily digestible formula, but now discovered that there is a reflux and aspiration problem. This must have contributed to her lung damage.

No idea what its called mate.

Hey 2Bliss,

For those of you who believe, please pray together at 18:00.

She is very ill. Doctors are now convinced she has some kind of genetic condition and testing is underway.

[Robbie Stewart]

Praying for Karmi.
