Latest Details on Jenn's Health

Jenn has just completed a detailed rundown on what's been going on with her health the last few months. It's now up on her personal blog.

The Reader's Digest version is that, on top of total stomach failure, it now looks like her intestines have also failed, but in exactly the opposite respect of her stomach. Her tummy won't let anything through; her guts won't keep anything in. Her symptoms are now being diagnosed as part of an autonomic system failure, a condition which really has no course of treatment.

For symptom alleviation, and nutrition maintenance, she's back on IV feeding through a PICC line, which introduces high risk of infection all over again, and is taking Tincture of Iodine to try to control chronic, spasmodic diarrhea. Just this weekend, she's trying to restart tube feeding again, after having been off for almost three months.

Jenn also blogged about her detailed impressions of the Grand Canyon trip.

But life goes on; and as Jenn mentions to close her health update, God keeps blessing us, and when all is said and done, we've got it good.
