Tuesday, May 8th
Last night Bill and I were reviewing Annie's daily food/medicine logs, and saw that her throwing up problems seemed to begin when we increased the rate the food goes into her tummy through the food pump. So today, we lowered her rate, and gave her some medicine to make the food go through her gut faster, and voila! NO THROWING UP!!!! Hooray! Now, there were a few close calls today where she coughed or gagged--but she held it together. So, a major praise God for answering your prayers. Thank you Lord.
Now, there is another problem. Of course--you didn't think you'd get off this site without more things to pray about did you?? So, she's got this thing happening as of about a week ago. Atonic "head drop" seizures. Like, all of the sudden, her head drops. It's not a good thing. Please pray that they stop--and that if necessary, we find out what's causing them.
Today was pretty busy--three rehab appointments and a lunch date with Grandmommie & Poppie & Aunt Susie. We went out and walked around Mill Creek Town Center and had lunch outside in the sunshine.
Tomorrow is the big day for her rehab evaluation at Children's. Please pray for God to help us through the day--we have appointments from 9 AM - 1 PM. Annie will need stamina and peace as new people work with her. I appreciate you thinking and praying for us--it really is a comfort--and God will answer. I really want God's will to be done--I'm at peace with His leading.
I'll update this tomorrow night and let you know how everything went.

PS Please keep praying for no barfing.:)
