Similar day to yesterday's, not much energy, happy lying in bed watching dvds. Her temperature has remained below 38 which is good. She vomited twice, at lunchtime and this evening, both times the Ng tube came out. Hopefully she will keep the new one in a bit longer. The dietician is suggesting a different feed that would be easier and quicker for her to digest. She has also mentioned a different tube which goes lower down in the stomach. Will be looking into these options tomorrow.
She is having a blood transfusion this evening as her haemoglobin level was down to 7.5 this morning. Hopefully it will help her energy level tomorrow.
We are back on the main ward. We have spent the last few days in the cubicle not actually in isolation, a bit of a luxury really. It is a bit noisy on the ward but at least Niamh can see the other children from her bed.
