Pat- RSS archives

[Guest guest]

Pat,

I believe you can access past listserve posts by going to the

Messages section and putting in a topic under Search Archives. This

way you could free up some of your memory on your computer and make

your hubbie happy!

P.S. Is B home yet?

Hi Alison,

Thanks for reminding me about the archives. I have tried that, but I

can't get it to work right. I thought you just put the topic that you wanted

to find in search and it would bring up any emails related to that topic. Am

I right? Does the word searched have to be in the subject line of the email?

Oh well! Thought I'd ask my 12 yr old, Kaitlyn, to try it for me! LOL

(Much more computer literate then I am. I need a search done, I just go and

find her! LOL)

Thanks for asking me about . It's been a while since I updated

hasn't it.

got home from the hospital just last night. Liz and ette

brought him by on their way home, and showed me his new BSL tester. I guess,

from what Liz said, they're going to try stopping his feeds for an hour and

then putting him back on for two, then back off for one and so on, in prep

for bolus feeds. He is back up to 25cc/hr for feeds, so that's good.

Liz was telling me that 10/15 lines from his blood tests were off the

norm, but she wasn't sure which ones or what they meant. Told her I could

look at it for her, and see if I can ascertain what's up. The Drs let him

come home anyway, so I guess he's okay.

He still has CHF, of course, that will take time to go away, as will the

swelling in his liver. He is back on Digoxin and Lasex, again, to regulate

heart rhythm and reduce the fluids. Anyway, Liz told me that the Drs are

testing for 4 different kinds of genetic problems, that have to do with the

heart, and those tests will take 3 or so weeks to come back. They could be

causing the repeat episode of CHF. I guess ette found out that some

relatives, on her side, have this stuff.

All in all, he looked good last night. He has 6 teeth in now! Four on

the top and two on the bottom. His smile is just soooo cute! We haven't had

him for a visit yet, but I am hoping either tomorrow, or Monday. We have

really missed having him here with us. We won't have an official weight from

his peds scale until at least Tuesday. It will be nice to know where we are

starting again.
