Seren has hit the seven month mark. I didn't mark the occasion because we had a very busy week last week. Most importantly, Seren had her appointment with the ped. surgeon and he's approved the G-tube surgery. This procedure places her feeding tube into her stomach instead of having to have it through her nose. It seems like the nose tube might irritate her a bit so inserting the tube directly into her stomach will be a more comfortable long-term solution. Yesterday she had an upper GI, and, while the initial report didn't seem to show anything we don't have the full report yet. However, as of right now it seems like the sugery will be a simple laproscopic G-tube insertion.
The sugery SHOULD be scheduled by now but I haven't received a call from UNC yet. Seren will be kept overnight at UNC for the procedure so we need to go ahead and get this scheduled in order to make any necessary arrangements.
We are registered for the 5k in Roanoke on Thanksgiving Day. Hope to see some people there! Happy Holidays.

- Whats in a name?
- Seren is a Welsh name that translates into the word "Star." Seren Virginia Windley was born April 13, 2009. From very early on it became clear that there were odds against her. However, whatever medical information and statistics say we remind ourselves each day that it is only God that counts the stars.
