Emotional Overload

What a week it has been.  Ollie had her 6th operation total 5th for cleft issues on Wednesday. She came through with flying colors and is doing great.  But all the stress before, DURING, and keeping her feed is wearing on a Mom.  Oh by the way it was a 4 hour surgery scheduled for 5 with the ENT also plugging a hole in her ear.  Then I got a call from our agency that Kanghong is not doing well.  A little back story.  We were told about 2 weeks ago she was leaving Little Flowers and going to a foster home.  Well since then we have seen pictures posted and added to her album of her at LF. And in one she has a feeding tube.  So I contacted our agency and asked if they could check on her.  She did not go to Foster Care she became very ill and was sent to the hospital for test.  She spent 2 weeks in the hospital getting treated for something LF doesn't even think what is wrong with her so they had her released back to them.  She was OK for a couple of days but then took a turn for the worse. Vomiting and urinating little. So back to the Doctor who said she had electrolyte imbalance .  (Duh she's puking all the time!)  The have put her on breast milk only (she's 2.5 is that enough?) .  In conclusion this is what we got.

I’ll be honest and tell you that we STILL do not have any idea what is wrong with her and why she has repeated episodes of vomiting and serious GI complaints.  The doctors are not sure either.

We have brought her to Beijing and had the top international experts examine her and run tests.  They cannot give us any answers.  We really don’t have any other options other to continue to provide basic care and treat her various symptoms as they occur.

 

So we contacted our Doctor and I wont even begin to post what she said! It was so harsh my head was spinning.  So we continue on this road and wait and pray that she gets better in the next couple of weeks and that all our paperwork continues to more along quickly.  We are still so far from travel and getting her.  It is all in someone else's hands to take care of her.   Little Flowers seems to love and care for the children so much that I don't think she could be anyplace better then with us.
