Allie, I'm lifting you in prayer right now. May the PEACE of God be with you. May He guide the hands of your surgeon so that you will have COMPLETE HEALING. In the name of Jesus we claim RELIEF from all of the suffering that you have endured. Blessings!

Small Hospital Update
Well I THOUGHT I was going to get to go home today. Nope. Still sitting here. Guess this will be an 11 day hospital trip! lol Apparently they didn't all the arrangements for home health yet.

I did finally get my PICC line on Saturday morning and they started my 12 HOUR

feeding in it that night. So now I'm on night 3 of the TPN feeding and so far I feel pretty ok. They have to check my blood sugar every 6 hours and gosh I hate getting my finger pricked! And doing this at home means dragging around a pump for 12 hours OR staying in bed for 12 hours. Lordy, gotta love it.

I think I just have to be on it for 2 weeks and then we'll reevaluate from there. So I hope it does what it's supposed to and that I don't have to be on it for a long time or else I'm REALLY going to just ask him to convert me to the Sleeve!

So I think I am most likely going home tomorrow, God I hope I am anyway. They should definitely have my home health set up and worked out by then, hopefully. Well, that's just my lovely update for what it's worth. Have a good week!

P.S. Forgot to mention that in the past couple of days since starting my TPN, I have not been bradycardic ONCE!!!! That is really awesome news!! I KNEW that just had to have been all about diet!
