Not sure why

Mom's new feeding tube is working like a charm. No more clogs. She has been uncomfortable at the tube site, especially where her new stitches are. The pain makes it hard to relax. This morning, she was again nauseated and vomited quite a lot. We had been blaming the Carafate (medication) for the nausea, but it continues to be a problem even without the medication. She continued to throw up small amounts throughout the day, reverting back to the feeling of being full rather than nauseated. We're just not sure why this keeps happening. We talked about the need to sit upright (at a 90 degree angle) for 45 minutes to an hour after eating. She has forgotten to do this so we'll be trying that tomorrow. She will also be calling Dr. Ott tomorrow for her biweekly phone visit. Hopefully he'll have some answers.
Mom and dad were able to take a long walk to the park, around the track and back home. She started her feeding tube a little earlier today so she'll be done first thing in the morning rather than having to wait until 10 or 11 am to unhook it.
It's hard to remember that all of this is progress. I think mom wants to measure her recovery by how soon she will have her feeding tube out or when she can eat regular food. It is discouraging to be going at such a slow rate, but the Lord doesn't measure progress by our time limits or even by our measuring stick. Slowly but surely she will be whole again. In His plan, things are made perfect in a perfect way, rarely are they in the method or time frame we think they should be. If we can just have faith and remember the Lord knows what He's doing, He can work miracles within us.
