Donut diet

Brody is now allowed solid foods...  No significant gas pains since yesterday... Lots of diarrhea now though...  Butt is getting pretty raw causing some pain now...  If he can start taking in enough liquids and some food he may be able to come home tomorrow...

He hasn't eaten or drank much... just a little bit of fruit punch (Capri Sun) to drink... a few bites of a bacon and egg hot pocket-- and about half of the donut shown above.

 We are a little bit afraid with all the antibiotics he has been on that he may have another C. Diff infection in his bowels (causing all the diarrhea).... this infection is caused when antibiotics kill off alot of bacteria in your bowels (other then the C. Diff one) and the C. Diff bacteria overgrows your bowels causing severe diarrhea. Brody had this a few months ago and this increases his susceptiblity to this infection.

Trish is with him again tonight, Geordi and Jaden came home today from Trish's parents house-- Thanks to Uncle Dan for bringing them back up today.

Thats about it... going to bed soon so we can get back there early tomorrow -- I'm assuming Trish will not get much sleep tonight if Brody can't go more then an hour without going potty.

More later...
