Since I have been gagging and throwing up a little bit more since transitioning to the go home vent, the Aerodigestive team thought it would be helpful to do a gastric emptying scan to see if my stomach muscles are working properly or if there is a delay in food being sent to the small intestine. The procedure used a radioactive nuclear medicine mixed with breast milk inserted through my g-tube to determine how quickly food leaves my stomach. The radioactive substance allows the camera to follow the food through the digestive process. I had to lay still for nearly 1.5 hours while the camera took pictures.


Meanwhile, as this study was being carried on, mommy and daddy were busy doing this

Thanks for ditching me.
I better taste this in the breast milk
But they made up for it by smothering me when they came back
