The big day...

We got so much information today, it's hard to know where to begin, so you'll have to bear with me.
ENT - we never made it to see the Ear, Nose, and Throat guy. We spent too much time at the hospital, so we re-scheduled for Thursday at 3:30. However, if this doctor thinks Olivia needs tubes in her ears and he is willing to coordinate a time with the general surgeon, they can do this at the same time as the G-tube. That would be awesome!
Cardiology - we went to see Dr. Shah at 1:00. Love that guy. Anyway, he ordered some labs, listened to her, and here's what we know. Her platelets are at 45,000 (up a bit), her hemoglobin is at 9.6, and her white count is still low. Her retic count was good, meaning her bone marrow is producing healthy new baby red cells. He consulted with Olivia's doctor from St. Jude and they are both tending to believe it is something viral, not cardiac related or having anything to do with the old leukemia stuff. They are going to continue to watch her counts by re-testing on Thursday and getting a chest x-ray. Dr. Shah heard a little something in her lungs, so he's just checking for pneumonia. So, we thought that was all good news. They let us leave, after all!
G-tube/General Surgeon - We met with Dr. Pearl at 2:15. We loved, loved, loved Dr. Pearl and his entire staff. They had done their research and knew all about Olivia extensive history. He went through all the possible scenarios and didn't even laugh at our questions! So, for now, we are going in Thursday to have a GI study done, and again on Tuesday for another GI study to get more information. If he still needs more info, we'll go for a third test that would require an overnight stay. We are definitely going ahead with the G-tube, but are trying to decide if Olivia has a problem with reflux and needs what is referred to as a Nissen. We'll know more on Tuesday afternoon when we meet with him again.
We felt really good coming out of all of these appointments. It's definitely going to make for long days on Thursday and next Tuesday, but it will be nice to move forward with all of this. Thanks for thinking and praying for us today! It definitely brought us peace! And the best part - Olivia was happy all day. She usually gets really fussy after spending all day in and out of doctor's offices. I think the main reason is that Zac was there, which helped tremendously. He can be pretty entertaining. At least Olivia thinks so.
Jack is feeling better. Just a bad morning, I guess. He should be good to go tomorrow!
I suppose that sums up our day without giving too much medical detail. There will be plenty of time for that!
