April 3, 2006

Well, its becoming routine that whenever we need to take Ellie Kate to the Hospital... its on the weekend.  This past weekend (March 31-April 2) Ellie Kate started throwing up and her stomach became distended.  We later learned that she had "an incredible amount" of air in her intestines creating gas and extreme discomfort.

All that to say, Ellie Kate is back in Baptist Hospital undergoing testing and evaluation.  The good news is that she is not in the PICU and is not critical or life-threatening.  She will undergo some GI tests today.  They have taken away her medicine and food and that has helped the problem.  They will re-introduce her food and medicine slowly to see if she can handle them.  We will post an update when we know more.

The short-version:  EKM is in the hospital with a GI problem and will undergo some testing.
