But, life goes on, even after Disneyland. And we got back in the swing of things with a summer get together with the Jacobs. And wouldn't you know, everyone wanted a shot at the Sidewinder!
But, as with all good things, the serious stuff was waiting for us as soon as we were doing having our fun. I got to spend a day and a night at Kaiser Walnut Creek having a second ph probe done. Why? Well, it seems inevitable that I will end up with a g-tube (for feeding purposes) and my GI is suggesting the Fundo as well, because of my previous issues with Reflux (aka GERD). Notice I said "previous"? After a horrible day and night in the arm restraints you'll see below and a very long night for my Mama (and Dada who couldn't stay in the hospital with us), we got the results of the probe.
The results: I no longer suffer from an abnormal amount of reflux, in fact, the test said I had better than average control over the acid flow between my stomach and esophagus. How cool is that!? Thanks Mama, for being patient and letting my body work out its issues.
So, now we get to tackle my eating aversions head-on, nothing else to worry about, nothing else to prevent us from making me the little eater everyone hopes some day I will be. I do too, and with my Mama and Dada, I don't see how I can possible fail!
