24- Getting Closer

Alyssa was advanced to 24 cc's today and is no longer on an IV. We hope that her electolytes and input and output stay in alignment so we do not have to go back on the IV. This morning the electrolytes looked good. Alyssa did not throw up last night. So hopefully the increased amount of reflux medicine helped her out. The only problem is now that she is off the IV, they are only giving her the medicine once a day and orally. Let's keep our fingers crossed that the changes we are making don't effect her too much. We plan on continuing to take it even slower the last bit. It will add a few days on, but we should still be home for Thanksgiving and I would much rather take it slower now, then have to start over.

Take care,
Alyssa, Kim & NJ

Oh, you are doing so good beautiful Alyssa. You keep this up and you will spend your first Thanksgiving in your very own home. What a wonderful day that will be!!!

Hugs & Kisses,
