Guest guest Posted March 23, 2000 Report Share Posted March 23, 2000 HI guys; Well s labs are good and his hemaglobin is back up. So I guess doing g tube hydration and neocate is working so far. We are going slow and to not rock the boat. Now the school is complaining he stinks up the room. I am not sure I know what else I can do. I have changed his ostomy bag several times and such. But they keep complaining. Grrrrrr On to my question. If we can swing it with our goverment insurance and the help of our doctors to go to Pittsburgh, is there a Mc house there? I was there last year and got to stay at the hotel for the APHS conference. But I can't afford that. Also I am not sure how much funding we can get to have seen there? Never have done this and I guess I never thought that they would offer going to Pittsburgh. With the canadian dollar being what it is, the cost are so much more for me. Everything is 50% more. Any info would be great. Beatrix the confused canuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2000 Report Share Posted March 23, 2000 There is a RMH there. I have stayed there about 5 times. It is about 1.2 miles away from the hospital. It is a n house that has been converted over. [eosinophilic gastroenteritis] Re: [TPNsupport] Pittsburgh > > > HI guys; > Well s labs are good and his hemaglobin is back up.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2000 Report Share Posted March 23, 2000 Bea, Contact Anastas at the APHS. She may be able to help with transportation to Pitts and other stuff. I'm not sure how that works from Canada, but she is your best bet. Steph. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
