Dear Self in March 2014,
I know you are freaked out right now. They are talking g-tubes and G/J tubes and a Nissen proceedure and so many other things. There are so many questions about what is going on and NOBODY has answers and they want you to make a decision. Life is full of these moments but when someone is asking you to make a decision for your child without being able to tell you what the repercussions are, it is scary as hell.
So you research and pray and talk about it with others and pray and you make a choice knowing that God knows what he is doing.
And here we are. The kids just turned three.
Self, she is fine. Not every day is a walk in the park. She throws some wicked tempertantrums but she also likes throwing the ball and giggling about the word underpants... and she eats... all. the. time. I wish I could tell you not to worry, but I know you will anyway.
Today, her g-tube was taken out. We haven't used it in over a year and a half. It was time.
We celebrated with cake and pancakes from McDonalds.
She did it! I wish you could see her now!
Love Katie
