We are all home and back to the regular routine. No one knows what Teena might have eaten that showed up in the x-rays. The doctor at the hospital said it was probably metal or rock-like based on shadows or something from the ultrasound. No one also knows if that is what caused her puking streak. We were given a potty "hat" (oh, the glory and glamour of parenting) to catch her poop and inspect it for...something that is not poop I guess. Her kidneys are good, no infection showed in her pee so it was not that. She may have eaten something that was food but bad food although I cannot imagine what because we all eat the same thing every day.
Anyway, she is drinking and eating and doing ok. She is becoming irritable and demanding, which says to me, she is just fine.
Woo hoo! So glad she is doing better!
ReplyDeleteyup, much better today too! Now we are inspecting large chunks of sick poop for pebbles or something. The Husband is currently in the bathroom gagging....
ReplyDeleteYou don't think whatever she swallowed could have some sort of toxin in it, do you? Lead?
ReplyDeleteWhat a relief! I'm so glad she's feeling better.
ReplyDeleteEssie,
ReplyDeleteI have spent the afternoon reading your entire blog and feel like I just finished the latest book of a great series and can't wait for the next one. You are a skilled writer and funny as all get out. Peace to your family,

Thanks to everyone for the well wishes! We have had nothing appear in the poop yet. I never thought of something lead, but it could be. Arrrrggghhhh.
ReplyDeleteDe- thank you for that wonderful comment! It kept me going all day!
