Day 442

Ava had a good night and didn't seem to be in any pain. Her heart rate did go down in the 60s and 70s (normally in the 90s - 100s) when she was asleep and her heart rate when awake was only in the 120s (normally in the 140s - 150s). I was concerned about it so I had them do and EKG and it came back normal. GI came by finally around 4:30 pm and said that we should do a scan of her digesting barium which will hopefully happen tomorrow morning.They will also measure her tummy to see if it's abnormal. She got a couple of diarrhea times so they think she might have had some kind of tummy bug, so they took tests on her stool. She didn't get fed today, but hopefully will tomorrow.

A theory as to where the blood came from is there is a bump on her tongue. Did she possibly bit her tongue and the blood sat in the back of her throat? Did she have a seizure and bite her tongue?  I am not so sure we will ever find out.

Thanking God for Ava being here and praying that we can get her better...
