Out of the hospital

[tabbycat821]

Ok so for anyone who has read or maybe not read my other posts my 8 week old son had been vomiting for a few weeks and when we saw the Dr. last week he upped all the meds and the enzymes. Well the vomiting didn't get better in fact it got worse, on Saturday he threw up 4 times. On Sunday he threw up his first feeding and I called the Dr. who sent us to the emergency room at the hospital where we see our cf Dr. They ended up admitting our son and putting him on a bunch of machines. They put him on GoLytely after finding a small partial obstruction of his bowel. They kept waiting for it to come out which of course it wouldn't so he had to stay on the GoLytely until today when it cleared. Now not letting an 8week old eat for 2 days is hard on everyone. We had a rough couple days and lots of x-rays and films. They wanted to keep us one more day but we needed to care for our other children too anf we're not too far from the hospital so they let us go home. This was our first major CF thing since he was diagnosed. He has not vomited since he ate today which is promising. We have to watch him the next few days.I learned that you have to have a thick skin to deal with CF as you never know what might get thrown at you.

i know how hard it is to feel like you cant help them and you want to make them better and it sucks when you cant help. I have a 12 year old who has cf and most of the time im positive and keep things together but there are those times when i cant. I try to pray abt my problems and then i think how thankful i am to only be dealing with this and try to tell myself it cld be worse and then i try to talk to people that will listen and dont think im a complainer. Keep your head up and i will be here if you need to talk and will pray for your family.

Sorry to hear its been so rough. My daughter suffers from blockage problems. Definitely keep an eye out in the future for vomiting -- unfortunatly kids who get this, tend to have recurrences. Have they talked about using miralax regularly for him?

I'm glad you are home and hope you don't see the hospital for a long time!!
