He came home from NICU with the g-tube. It wasnt bad at all....now he is all better-- and is a "normal" 21 month old twin. Hang in there-- it will all be a memory with another small scar ( we have several scars on our precious Joseph) , and enjoy the simple things now! She is so beautiful!

Carter's docs keep mentioning the "G" word, and I just can't get over the thought of him having yet another surgery. It's like, when does it stop?? <BR/><BR/>I can completely relate to your blues. I think that the 4 months Carter and Catherine were in the hospital, we had so much adrenaline running through us that it kept us going and life wasn't supposed to be normal. Now that I'm home, I get really upset when I think about how we're still not "normal" and how much the doctors and therapists still control our lives. And then, when I take Carter in public and people stare at his NG tube like he's some alien, I want to scream! If you ever want to scream and yell, just let me know :) kzmyers@yahoo.com<BR/><BR/>Take care and try to get some time out of the house and away from it all. Even if it's just a walk around the block.*super dude and super dog*https://www.blogger.com/profile/00506572597464180765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706957318443128019.post-28803708287901431252009-03-14T19:28:00.000-07:002009-03-14T19:28:00.000-07:00we'll be saying extra prayers on Tuesday...love yo...we'll be saying extra prayers on Tuesday...love you guys!Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14928393729184827704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706957318443128019.post-72309304241622863632009-03-14T17:06:00.000-07:002009-03-14T17:06:00.000-07:00Hang in there guys!!Hang in there guys!!Brooke Hammelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529452326903880946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706957318443128019.post-50618903632841056672009-03-14T11:38:00.000-07:002009-03-14T11:38:00.000-07:00Hi Katie,I'm sorry to hear that Catherine has ...Hi Katie,<BR/>I'm sorry to hear that Catherine has to have surgery again. Hopefully the g-tube will relieve some of the other problems and give Miss Catherine more ways to be expressive & develop without the yucky NG tube. She is such a beautiful little girl! As for the "blues", I think it's all quite normal, and with what you've been through, even expected! Just remember to take time for you to refuel your own "tank" too! My kids are nearly grown, and I STILL have days that tears come easier than smiles. It's not an easy job this being a mommy thing, but it is so worthwhile and amazing! Keeping you close in thought and prayer!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08566820973751927352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706957318443128019.post-83041053067086910462009-03-14T11:32:00.000-07:002009-03-14T11:32:00.000-07:00YES, you and donnie and catherinre CAN do this and...YES, you and donnie and catherinre CAN do this and wil do this and things will be so much better.

Zach had his gtube surgery, no nissen or the pylor... at 5.5mnths. i was a wreck prior but he did great, and Catherine is another Fighter, so she will do wonderful. <BR/>i wanted to also let you know about your last post, about the "blues" from what i hear with lots of other CDH/nicu moms its completely normal, i know that i had a terrible case of them and actually ended up needing a lil help with some meds. just think how your life has been turned upside down....its normal. i think your doing fantastic, you can "feel" the love in your every word to Catherine. Dont stress too much over your saddness.....if it gets to be to much, try to see a doctor, no shame in it, no one who knows anything about your life the last year would say anything negative about it. anytime you want/need to talk you can email me roses4me777@yahoo.com and Zach's carepage is Zacharydavis . <BR/>keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers! <BR/>God Bless!!Dottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12624318675496736214noreply@blogger.com
