My baby brother Joe made this montage of my beautiful one. It made me cry.
"I never knew love before...then came you...."
Aero has a stomach virus. He has had diarrhea for 3 days and today he started vomiting. I fed him via g.i. tube at 4:30 pm. At 5:30 pm he vomited and just wanted me to hold him. He cried and cried. Aero is not a baby who cries easily or often. When he does, you know he is in distress. I could feel his stomach lurching and churning.
One of the good things about having a g.i. tube is that you can vent out stomach contents. So, rather than wait for another vomiting episode (or two or three), I attached the y-connector, left the port open and out it came with a lot of air bubbles. Tonight, all night, I will administer, via g.i. tube, Ultima (a natural alternative to Pedialyte) every 30 minutes to re-hydrate and bring his electrolytes in balance.
Hope he wakes up feeling better.
