Liam had his upper GI today. It was pretty neat to watch. It was just like the foral test only they make you drink this contrast stuff that allows them to see it travel through the body. Liam's stomach is flipped but it's "normal" for CDH kids. He does not have malrotated bowels but dows have reflux or what they kept called gurd. You could actually watch as the contract splashed up into the esophagus. I wish I would have recorded it. Valley Childrens will keep him for a few more days to get him eating normally again then release him. We think we will be out of here on wensday. They already uped his dose of Reglan to maximun dosage and theres no much else they can do for him. We just have pray that he will be ok. Last night was very long. We went and picked up Buggie around 8pm, didn't het back to the hospital until midnight then everytime Liam would finnaly fall asleep a nurse or pct would come in and mess with him and walk out. I didn't get to fall asleep until around 5:45am when Justin woke up and took over. I slept until 9am then took a 2 hour nap this afternoon. I hope its not as bad tonight. It'll probably be worse since that ditzy nurse is back tonight.
