Well after a month of being home and resting I am doing so much better!!! We had a great Christmas and New Year’s! We went to San Jose last week so that I could see all my doctors and therapists! It was a successful trip. My GI was super impressed on how well my gtube site looked. He asked if we were doing anything special to it and my parents said yes! They have been putting Aloe Vera on me three times a day and it seems to really be helping heal my wound. We were happy about that!!! My pediatrician was quite content as I gained 2 lbs and am now weighing in at a big 18lbs. My physical and occupational therapist were also happy on how well I am doing considering that I had basically three months of not working out! So all in all everyone was happy with me and I am happy to be back at home!!!! Yesterday I intentionally grabbed my rattle and picked it up and shook it around! My mom and dad were thrilled to see me do this!! I was pretty impressed with myself as well!
I get my tube changed for a button at the end of next month. We are all looking forward to that as the tube gets in the way of many things and I cant go swimming until I have my button placed! Will keep everyone posted! Thanks for checking in!!
Much love Malia
Keep up the excellent progress. Everyone is cheering for you.
