If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again...



That's right folks! Strike one, strike two, strike three times is a charm! That's my version of that saying or at least I hope three times is a charm. Let me explain. We went on our journey to the new improved part of the clinic at approximately 2:15pm to make our way over to Radiology to have Liliana's gastric study done. The total time of the test was about 1 hour once they got her suited up in her little vest to protect her from the radiation. She was such a good girl during the procedure. She didn't make a sound. She just laid there and chilled out. When all was said and done they will have to repeat the test again on Monday. They calm that the NG tube that they put in today was placed too far down in her stomach and may actually have been in her small intestine so they didn't get good results. They did say the fact that the first time around they put the solution in her corpac could actually give them some good information they could use for the study so I guess it wasn't all in vain. Poor Liliana, she just can't seem to get a break! Now we are back in her room and she got a diaper change, a dressing change on her line in her leg, and they removed the NG tube until Monday when she goes back for the study again. Wheww! It has certainly been a busy afternoon here at the clinic. I hope it is a peaceful night.
