Today the nurse:
Gave meds at 8:00
Did vital signs
Gave Ellie a bath
Cleaned her stomach tube site
Changed her feeding bag and refilled with milk
Got her to sleep
Held her
Practiced feeding her with an empty spoon (pray she can eat food one day soon!)
Changed her
Readministered meds
More vitals
Turned her oxygen down which requires concentration and talking to her doctor
Celebrated with mom she needs less oxygen today
Suctioned out her mouth and nose
Got her to sleep again
Today the mom:
Made breakfast
Called around to try to find Ellie's powder for her milk
Played Apples to Apples
Made milk for Ellie
Rode bikes around the driveway with the kids
Did some school
Did some laundry
Got everyone settled for rest time
Played Apples to Apples some more :)
I'm so glad these are two different people now.
