Discouraged...
Well, I thought after 3 weeks of the feeding tube Jack's redness and swelling of the area around his cleft would have improved - no such luck. After going to the ENT yesterday, it's actually worse! How does that happen? I really wish I knew because I could have used some good news yesterday. So, we are now seeing GI also and a week from Monday they will all discuss - GI, ENT, pulmonology - what the plan will be for Jack. GI will probably check his belly and hopefully ENT will fix his cleft at that point. This has been such a long road and we were so hopeful for a simple answer after his past hospitalization and a quick fix to get him back to taking bottles. Unfortunately no such luck on that one. Anyways, I'm just rather discouraged and needed to get this off my chest so I can work on staying positive for Jack and not let him see my stress and frustration.
Poor little Jacker. Did they check if the feeding tube is still placed right? Wonder if it became NG instead then he would still be refluxing and cause inflammation. I assume that it has to be less inflammed for them to fix it?
