Another infection, I am sorry to report, my feeding plug has become infected and once all the other pain was treated, the stomach pain really began. So, I took a visit to Dr. Witte's Office to see my dear friends there. Dr. Witte agreed there is an infection around the skin of my feeding button. He was really encouraging me to consider having the whole thing removed. For now, however, he put me on an antibiotic which will hopeful remove the infection and told me to put wet warmth on the area which does help with the pain.
I see the Gastroenterologist on April 8, so hopefully I will have gained enough weight by then to warrant removal.
It is a beautiful sunny day here today and I plan to enjoy every minute of it. It may feel like I have a knife stabbed into my stomach (I would send a picture, but if it made my PA brother-in-law gag, I'm guessing that is something most of you would care not to see), but that is no excuse to not wonder and glory in this special day God had given us!

I love how you take every obstacle you face with the best attitude and you always find the positive spin on it all. Just one of the many reasons why you are so amazing.
I hope you are able to enjoy this glorious day God has given us! I hope the infection goes away soon and you are feeling better!
Go out and enjoy the Spring day. Happy Spring to you and your beautiful family. May God continue to bless you with many bountiful blessings!
All my love,
