Hospital Follow Up Appointment




We had a hospital appointment yesterday to meet with Kadens surgeon - Prof Youngson.He had a look at Kadens gastrostomy site to see all was well,and had a general look over Kadens hospital notes.He asked how Kaden was doing with his oral feeding and finger foods,which i replied not too great.Kadens not really interested in eating oraly at all.The surgeon says we'll just have to be patient and he'll have to keep his button til he eats completly on his own.He said he was happy with Kaden and was i happy with his development - which i am.He said he'll see us again in 4 months.But to catch up with the dietition in the meantime.


Today i got some bad news - a girl i met in hospital (when we were in the neo-natal) called to say her sister was killed instantly in a road crash last night.The poor girl was only 22 years old and heading home from work.


Life can be so cruel and hard at times,and make you relise how lucky we are and to take each day as it comes.


Last night i also got an email from a lady who's pregnant with a baby boy called Kaden who also has CDH,and is due on 25th August.Please keep Jamie and baby Kaden in your prayers.
