Grace had a follow up appointment with her doctor at Hasbro.. the last time she saw him was two weeks ago & she weighed, 11 lbs. 3oz.
& TODAY.... (drumroll, please!!)
11 lbs. 11 oz!!
YEA!! She is definitely gaining, which he was very happy about.
She is taking 735ml's via g-tube, which is 24 1/2 oz. a day..which
sustains her for good growth & nutrition.
Her g-tube area looks great. He was impressed with all the new fresh, new growth
skin that has taken place around the gtube area.
We don't see him for another month!
And we will start to see a nutritionist to manage her calories.
In her very cute new pajamas that have fairy princesses on them..
With everything that happened in the last month, it did put Grace
behind a little bit, but then I see her smiling face..and when I sing
to her, or she sees someone she recognizes.. she just is smiling so much more!
I just feel so greatful that she is finally healing with her g-tube area & really
taking the volume that she is. She is still eating twice a day with purees & tries a bottle. We will continue to try with her. She is spending more time on her
tummy as well.. and that's going to just strenghten her core muscles.
Thanks for all your prayers!
We are blessed!!
Love,
pattie & gary, Gracie & max
