Hey All,I Have Been Gone A Long Time,Unfortunately I Bear Ill Tidings.Yarrow Is Unable To Get Nutrition,As Per Norm,SHE Has Withered As Well.About A Month Ago She Weighed About 190lbs Most Of It,Like 95-100Lbs Was Just Edema Or The Third Spacing Of Water,So Really She Weighed About 100-95 LBS,Well All This Water Purged It's Self Over A 2 Week Period!She Literally Went From 190 To 111 Pounds In A Period Of About 13 Days!!!We Took Her Down To Stanford Twice Over A Two Week Period,Because They Keep Placing The Wrong Sized NG Tube For Her Feeding.The Tube By Passes Her Stomach(WHERE THE TROUBLE TRULY IS,And Attempts To Enter Her Duodenem So She Can Feed In Peace Without The Stomach Flare Ups),But Alas NO, They Do Not Use The Size NG That Stayed In Her Stomach For 3Months,And Started Her On A Nutritional Comeback,This One Came Out Because We Did Not Know That It Would Not On It's Own Stay In Place,So Alas It Came Out.This Is The Second Time They Have Placed The Wrong Tube In Yarrow's Duodenem.I Reiterated And Reiterated The Importance Of Using The Same Tube,They Did Not.They Got The Width Right,What They Call A French 10-45,The 45 Denotes Length.They Needed A French 10-55.The Radiologist Told Me It Would Have Made No Difference,It Would Have Come Out Anyways,Until I Explained To Him Very Nicely, That She Would Of Had An Extra 10 Inches To Move,Cough,Throw Up ETC.When I Explained It To Him This Way,He Said That He Had Not Thought About It In That Way,He Had Been Thinking Width,Not Length!!!IT BLEW MY MIND!!!So Yarrow Is At Home Now,Trying To Feed And Losing Ground That She Cannot Afford To Lose,And I Look On Feeling Helpless.DAMN FOOL DOCTORS,All The Smarts In The World,But Not A Lick Of Common Sense.These Are The Doctors WE GET TO LOOK FORWARD TOO WHEN WE RETIRE,OR HAVE TO HAVE A MAJOR MEDICAL PROCEDURE,Oh You Know,LIKE HEART SURGERY!!!
