So, the upper GI series went well. Everything looked good except that she has severe acid reflux. Which we already knew, so at least there wasn't anything else wrong. Thanks for your prayers. So for now, the plan is to tube feed her through the night to give her throat and esophagus a break. Tomorrow they are going to take her tube out and I am going to strictly breast feed her day and night and see how she does. If she does well and hopefully continues to gain weight then we should be on the road out the door very soon. They aren't going to worry about her bottle feeding so much if she will nurse well. She is also going to start the new medicine tonight so hopefully by tomorrow she will be feeling much better.
Tonight she is 5lb. 8.9oz. So thankfully through all of this she is still managing to gain a little weight each night.
Please pray more than ever that she will do very well tomorrow nursing and that she will gain weight. Pray that everything will fall into place and that we will once again be preparing for her to come home this week. And pray for Thomas to adjust well, to have understanding, and to feel loved. Thanks so much.

Holley, I work with your Dad, Ed, and we have been following Lily's progress all these months and she, as well as your sister, have been in our prayers. I praise God for the great news that Lily will be going home soon and your family can be together. Thomas is adorable too, I'm so thrilled Ed shared your blog. God bless!
