G-Tube Surgery Rescheduled

Like the title says, Liam's g-tube surgery has been rescheduled - for May 11, 2011 (Uncle Shawn's birthday). We're crossing our fingers and praying that it actually happens this time. We scheduled it the day before yesterday, in the morning, and by that evening he was wheezing again. So, we called the doctor yesterday and they put him back on antibiotics (which he had JUST finished a 10-day course of on Tuesday) until his surgery. Hoping this works to get the surgery done. He needs to have Occupational and Speech therapies stepped up but it would be useless to do so with the NG tube so we're kinda holding off until we get the G-Tube for him.

Little man is outgrowing his swing/bouncy seat and the jumperoo and still doesn't have enough trunk strength and control to sit in the high chair without being propped up in there so the physical therapist is working to see about getting us a special chair (called a tumbleforms chair) for him to sit in. We're working on sleep options for him, too, since he's sleeping propped up on pillows on the couch with one of us sleeping in the floor next to him. That's about it.
