"It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High, proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp. For you make me glad by your deeds, LORD;I sing for joy at what your hands have done." ~Psalms 92:1-4
Good evening!
Last night my parents met with one of the G.I. doctors and he said that he was okay with Kari not being on the feeding tube, to see if she would eat more, feel more hungry and with only eating 25% of her food, Praise The Lord. We tried to do the ice cream last night and she was not interested, it didn't even end up out of the freezer. She did sleep well last night, but some how she pulled out her feeding tube that was in her nose. As of right now they aren't going to put it back in. I think that she might be willing to eat more soon, just because she won't be feeling the tube down her throat.
She did eat 25% at breakfast and lunch today, hopefully dinner will go as well. She is still trying to avoid and manipulate when it's time to eat, saying that she'll eat more if people will give her some love, and still the same "tricks" from the other day. We did try a new strategy this afternoon; we gave he breaks in between every few bites, and that seemed to make it easier on all.
The G.I. doctor stopped in to see her again today, and he was very encouraging and impressed with the fact that Kari is eating, he said he doesn't see the need to put a food peg in nor to put her nose line back in.
She hadn't been singing as much lately, but she started singing a bit more during our last visit. She makes up her own songs and sings along to the Cd's that are playing. It's really a fun thing to be a part of.
I am still so grateful for this new perspective that God has given us from this experience. A new and fresh perspective is definitely the spice of life, at least right now, I'll let you know if my opinion on this matter changes.
Be blessed
