So it has finally come. The big bad wolf of preemie life, rehospitalization. We went to the Dr today and Avigayil wasn't breathing well and was breathing fast. Her lungs sounded bad and to top it all off she had actually lost weight. The pediatrician called the pulminologist and off we went to the hospital. By the time we got to the ER she had a fever as well.
As soon as we got to our room they put in a feeding tube. With in 5 minutes Avigayil had pulled it out completely (while sedated no less!). It takes a lot to impress a picu nurse. They said Avigayil was a prodigy. I guess every parent needs something to brag about. Can she push up while on her tummy? No, but she can remove any medical device in under five minutes flat.
Yisroel Meir is taking the news hard. He called me when he got home and was hysterical. The other kids are disappointed but handling it well. We hope to be home before the upcoming holiday next week.
Please continue to daven for Avigayil bas Rivka Batya.
