“He is like a tree, planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season, and whose leaf does not wither.” --Psalms 1:3

Another decent day here in the hospital-no vomiting or diarrhea episodes.  Yeah. Jacob’s NJ feeds just got turned up to 25ml per hour.  He seems a little fussier to me, but overall is tolerating them so far.  We’ll increase them by 5ml every eight hours until the target goal of 45ml is reached.

 

The doctors switched the oral meds we were giving by IV back to oral today.  They are definitely talking about discharging us either tomorrow or Thursday, depending on how the nutrition issues get worked out.  On one hand I’m happy about that, but then also a little nervous that we could be setting ourselves up for a repeat ER visit if we need admitted again.  As much as I want to get Jacob home to the apartment, I want to stay put here until we feel more confident with the feeds and vomiting and diarrhea issues.

 

Thanks for checking in on us. Please pray that Jacob is able to clear this rotavirus and get back to focusing on growing his new immune system.
