Hi all, feeling very down tonight.
Devin, has just been re-admitted to hospital AGAIN. It is now the 15th =
admission in 21 months. This time though it has nothing to do with his =
prematurity - he has gastro - which has caused quite severe dehydration. =
I am so stupid, I noticed his stools were very watery and he "oopsed" a =
couple of times yesterday but it did not look too bad. I also noticed =
that his eyes seemed larger than usual (sure sign of dehydration) now I =
am told but I thought nothing of it. =20
They have him on a drip, in isolation ward - does it ever end. =20
Sorry all, feeling down and I know most of you have far bigger problems. =
I was also told that both grommets (sp) are out and he will have to go =
into theatre again to have them put back in. Ugggggggh.
One good thing though, my ped and the pediatric staff are magnificent.
Regards, Ina
