Update: my brave little girl is currently drinking that disgusting stuff. Her facial expressions say enough, but she is willing herself through it. What a girl. Also, comments are working again! And my site is updated and working! Yeah!
The “Big Day” is finally almost here. And today is the day my daughter has been looking forward to, enough that she has not thought too much about her colonoscopy tomorrow. Because this is what her menu plan for today includes:
- Breakfast: Jell-O
- Lunch: Jell-O
- Dinner: Jell-O
- Snack: Popsicles
- And a refrigerator full of juices all for her.
Nevermind that stuff she is going to have to start drinking soon. One whole liter of stuff I have been told feels like you are drinking oil, eight ounces at a time, spaced ten minutes apart.
I really hope she likes the orange flavoring. At least she enjoyed mixing it.
At any rate, I had intended on posting but I hadn’t intended on getting sick myself. I appear to be all better, but my time and energy and spare neurons are being used up thinking about tomorrow. She checks in at 11 and her procedure is at one. I should be able to post about what happened sometime tomorrow afternoon or evening.
And then it kind of depends on what is discovered as to how with it I will be to post on much else.
OK, are comments working now?
Yeah!
Yay, comments working? Good! I *was* gonna post earlier about how I’m hoping for the best tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well. I’ll be checking back.
Yes, it is exciting when little things like comments are working.
She really isn’t liking this stuff she has to drink, though…
Yeah, she won’t like the “effects” it has, either. Poor kid.
Eyes, fingers and toes are crossed and prayers are said for a good outcome!
Yeah…she took it until she vomited. I hope it is enough. Not sure what they will do tomorrow if it isn’t. You can force down a few mils, but not a liter.
Everything is coming out pretty clear so I’m hoping that by tomorrow it won’t be an issue. I felt so bad for her as she tried to force down the last dose before it all came back up.
I probably won’t post until tomorrow evening, but we’ll see.
Dana,
Just want you to know I am praying for you, for your little girl, and for your family tonight and tomorrow especially – and longer if we don’t hear from you. I have two beautiful daughters and would hate to have either go through what your daughter is. You are in my prayers.
Well..site up and comments working? Dare I ask?
Yippee!
