More Studies

* UPDATE * They are wheeling James down to radiology right now (1 pm Eastern) for his upper GI test. This test takes a few hours because they have to allow time for the fluid to make its way from his tummy through (hopefully) the end of the GI tract, that is, his ostomy.

-------------------------------

They're going to do an upper GI study on James, probably tomorrow, just to make sure there aren't any additional problems that they've missed. (They have to wait a certain amount of time since the last study to make sure all the contrast material is out of his system.) I'm glad they're being thorough, but at the same time, I don't like to think about the possibility of more problems.

Mattie slept well in his crib for about an hour or so last night, but then threw up his 4 AM feeding when we tried to put him down again. Oh well, baby steps!
