    Gabrielle is back in the hospital (10/11)

    Well after being home for four days, we had to bring Gabrielle into the ER at Children's Hospital again yesterday. She has another infection, hopefully this one hasn't gone too far into her system. This could affect her surgery scheduled for next week. We're having trouble keeping her healthy enough to have the surgery which will keep her healthy. How ironic, big time catch-22.

    At least she's nowhere near as sick as she was last time. My wife caught this one immediately.


    UPDATE: She is septic again, the blood cultures came back positive. But her spinal fluid is ok. SO another minimum two weeks hospitalized again.

      What a good mother!!!! My prayers are for your family. I hope you're allowed to visit her often as there are many studies out there that babies' immune systems tend to improve when they're able to get at least 1/2 hr of good snugglin' each day from mom & dad. Hang in there!!!

                      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
