Sorry Yall, I haven't updated. but Becca got really sick and I was full time nurse duty.
Over the past month that she has been sick we have been to emergency twice, and to several different doctors six times.
They ran all kinds of tests for everything under the sun. She is so skinny and fraile right now it is crazy. She just started feeling better 2 days ago. She does have gallstones but that isn't the problem, they haven't found the issue yet. It isn't a twisted or obstructed bowel, it isn't parasites, it isn't a tape worm, it isn't pancreintitis after all.
Because we spend so much time out of the country they were worried that she may have contracted something, but ruled it out because we were in Egypt last summer which was a while ago, and the tests were negative.
She goes for a colonocopy when we return and also they are going to put that thing down her throat to check out things from the top porton and check out her bypass and other organs. Only thing is because they are so backed up she can't get it done for a while so the doctors after running so many tests said if she feels better it's ok to travel.
We almost cancelled the trip twice, but she is looking pretty good these last 2 days. We purchased more travel insurance on top of what we have so that if anything happens when we are gone the insurance will pay to fly her mom out and back.
She has lost a bunch of weight with all the diaherra and not eating, and her pelvic bones stick out which looks sick, lol. But her constant pain has ceased and they finally got the diaherra to stop. So for right now she has had 2 good days and we are hoping for more because we leave in 2 days, that is if she doesn't crash again.
I have never seen her sick like this. But i'm so glad she looked better today and yesterday, oh and she is eating solid food for a week now.
Thanks for all the well wishes because lord knows we need it, until they find out exactly what's going on with her.

Lee, I am continuing to pray for you both. I'm happy to hear she is feeling a little better and really do hope you can travel. Lee, do take care of yourself as well. You don't need become so worried and run down that you get sick too. So do try to rest and not worry yourself sick. Smoooches to you both.
Thanks for the update. I hope she continues to feel better and that the doctors will find out what is really wrong real soon.
People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown
