Fantastic News

Avigayil had quite a day. In the middle of the night her IV infiltrated. That means that instead of the fluids going into her vein they where emptying into her muscles. She woke up screaming with her had and entire arm swollen and hard. They then had to start a new IV which due to her difficult veins took a few tries. 

Later they needed to take blood which meant being pricked again. The test showed that her blood sugar was very low so they decided to repeat it to confirm (pricked yet again). This time it was dangerously low. There where about 10 doctors here as it was in the middle of rounds and they all stayed while one doctor gave her and IV push of sugar. After that they needed to take her blood sugar for a third time to be sure it was enough. (thankfully it was). Then we went down for the Contrast test. 

B"H it looks like we have avoided surgery. The test showed that everything is where it should be again and there is no leaking into the abdominal cavity. Avigayil is now getting her first feeding in four and a half days. We are hoping that she will tolerate it well and that we will be about to go home soon.
