Day 137 - Restart Feeds / DC Oxygen

The Upper GI report says there's no obstruction. They started feeding Chloe again today. She's getting 15cc's every 3 hours. This is 1/3 of what she was getting before she got sick. The latest theory, by the way, is that a virus got her and ran its course. I'm actually hoping that's correct because that would mean she's fine now. All she has to do is figure out this eating thing again. And as ravenous as she was last night, she should do well. The princess was held almost all night and our most favorite nurse, Gena, even held her royal highness for almost two hours after her 12hr shift ended (while she charted). While receiving all this indvidual attention the nurses noticed that Chloe's canula was often out of her nose and that she didn't seem to need it. So they spoke to the NP who agreed to try her without it. It's now 11pm and she's been without oxygen since 9am. Pretty cool! Of course, she may get it back whe she's up to full feeds again (it's harder to breathe when you have full belly - just think about how you feel after Thanksgiving). So we seem to be on the right track again. Praying that we can take some quick steps forward, toward, and out the door!
