Ode to Evelyn and last NG tube change (here's hoping)!









Well, the time has come to say good bye to dear Evelyn. Her help has been vital. Her attitude, a blessing. Her love for Noah leaves me without words. We sincerely thank her for all she has done. Don't be a stranger Evelyn - we'd love to see you soon!

We changed Noah's NG tube for (hopefully) the last time. If it stays in, we'll be good until Monday's admission to hospital. I've posted a few pictures to say farewell to the NG tube (if you look carefully in a few of the photos, you'll see some of a "NG Tube Free Noah"). I snapped a few while we were waiting for Jared to come home and complete the insertion. I pulled the tube early so Noah could mess around with food and have a swimming bath!

I'll attempt to blog updates regularly during our hospital stay, so please check in from time to time if you would like to see his progress.

It is a busy weekend for us. My dad (Grandpa V.) is visiting, and we are attending a memorial service for my dad's brother Jack who passed away earlier this year. I'm happy to be busy and have less time to think about Monday/Tuesday.

Wishing all our readers a super weekend!

    The reason I have a picture of Noah with a soo-soo, is that was the first time he held it in his mouth - he was chewing in true Noah style but it worked!

  2. Hope all goes well with his surgery next week! Glad to hear he's willing to have the soo-soo! May he continue to be willing to put things in his mouth. I hope for your sakes and his that all goes well with the surgery and that it will help reduce his GERD.
