Just when we thought we were out.....

Good morning.


At rest.

The family Zingarelli took a trip back to the hospital on Friday. All is good, and we're back home now, but it was a very nerve racking 24 hours. The long short of it is Mia was having some really bad acid reflux and was doing some very unusual spitting up and even throwing up. The actual spit up was not that unusual, but what had us concerned is that she never does it, at least not like she was. Anyway we were concerned that something was going on either with her G tube or worse that she was having more seizures.



I haven't really written about Mia getting seizures, but she was in fact having them. They had started in May but we didn't even realize they were seizures until a little while later. Her neurologist diagnosed it, and with some med treatment they cleared right up. She hasn't had any in over a month. The way she was acting during her spitup incidents this past week had us concerned that a new type of seizure had developed. We figured better safe than sorry and brought her to the emergence room.

After many exams from all of her great doectors at the hospital, the general consensus was that she was simply having really bad reflux. Relieved, we left the hospital last night. We're really happy to be back home and the girls are sleeping quite peacefully as I write this.

Here are a couple more pics from our trip back to LI July 4th week. I took them with my camera phone and finally got around to putting them on the computer.



It was a perfect July day, warm and sunny, not too humid. Just me and the little one sitting on the front porch taking it all in. Pretty much paradise.
