Today was more of the same. Kyara seems more awake each day. She seems to move her head in the direction of noise and people talking to her. She also got a new Jtube placed today. It is really a foley catheter (bladder catheter) that they are using for the weekend to upsize her J-tube site. On Monday the doctors will put in a MicKey Button Jtube. It will be just like her old Gtube button. It is a little sad to me, one of the biggest reasons we did the original surgery was so that she would not need a button anymore (amd so she could swallow her spit, not gag at night on saliva, eat normal food like the rest of us, etc). And here we are again. But, it is my goal and my hope that Kyara will continue to improve and will be able to eat by mouth in the near future. And when that time comes, her esophagus will be ready. Once she is able to get all her caloric needs by mouth, we will get rid of the button. And to be honest, it is really not that big of a deal. We have done the button before, and it is the least of our worries.
Oh God, please help Kyara recover. Thank you for sending so many prayers our way. God is great and I believe He has a plan.

KYARA!!! She is surely an angel on this earth with an angel for a mama and a granma, too! Hugs to Peggy. We love you! Wink
Every day brings her one day closer to that first meal by mouth. I believe she will get there. So happy to hear all of her progress these past several days. Seems like she is finally making some real strides in the right direction. We will continue to pray and expect even more healing from the Lord. Tell her we love her and hope to see you all in Ga. soon.
