Ok, so I'm behind.

As some of you know, Kaitlyn has been sick quite a bit lately. In February, we took her to the Children's Hospital in Little Rock to have some tests done. One test was to see if she had reflux where they put her to sleep and put a scope down her throat. The other test was a Ph probe where they put a tube in her nose which monitored her for 24 hours. This was also to test for reflux. That was probably the longest 24 hours ever. She had a tube in her nose and an IV in her foot. She couldn't walk because of the IV and couldn't crawl due to the restraints on her arms. We had to hold her nearly the whole time. All the tests from that visit were fine. This past week we went down for another test. This one was a swallow study to see if liquids were going down her airway to her lungs, which we saw was happening. We are on orders to thicken all Kaitlyn's liquids to honey consistency. She doesn't seem to mind this very much and hasn't been very sick lately. Below are some pictures from the Feb. visit.

Before the procedure. She was feeling good that day.

After she woke up she was ready to eat.

Still kind of asleep. The things on her arms "no-nos" are to keep her from pulling out the tube in her nose. She couldn't bend her arms at all for the whole 24 hours. I didn't know if we were going to make it.

It wasn't all bad though. We had some happy moments too.

She just doesn't know what is going on.

She is just ready to go home.

Not sure where that smile came from.

This is one of only a couple naps. Mom and Dad get some time to rest.

Another happy moment.

The tube and IV are taken out. As you can tell, she hated that.

We finally got to take the "no-nos" off and its off to the playroom.

We were not really in a room for this 24 hour period. It used to be an ICU area where they had 10 beds sectioned off by curtains. We could hear everybody around us crying and talking. Kaitlyn really done great considering she had her arms restrained and an IV in her leg the whole time.
