Toby is in surgery right now to get his feeding tube directly into this stomach. Hopefully this will be his last surgery for awhile! I'm also praying that they will allow him to get his milk directly into his stomach and not into his intestine. The feeding tube is large enough, they can slide a smaller tube through it and into his intestine, so he can eat that way. I think he would be a much happier baby if he felt like he had some satisfaction from feeling full. It would also allow him to get a larger amount of food at one time instead of just a little bit continuously over 24 hours. We will see what the doctors say.

ReplyDeleteWe will keep Toby in our prayers today and hope that this surgery will be the last for awhile.

ReplyDeleteFinally my computer is allowing to do this! The cookie problem is solved. Carrie and Bruce I love you and I'm blown away by how you've handled the many challenges you've experienced. God is in control and has a greater purpose beyond what we can see. His ways are not our ways. Wish I could be in Columbus every week, but know that I'm praying for you and Toby and the boys daily.
And so are many here at CU, my church and so are many of my friends. We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses!! The body of Christ is awesome!
