Hypoactive Ileus:
Sam's followup appointment with Pediatrician today. He was diagnosed with a hypoactive ileus-- a functional rather than mechanical obstruction of the bowel. The game plan for now is to feed him small amounts and watch to see it progress back to normal. There is already evidence that we're heading in that direction. Sam only vomited once today.
On happier news, the weather was warm today (near 50 F after weeks below 32 F), so Sam got out of the house for a while and enjoyed running around and splashing in the puddles left by melting snow/ice we had last Wednesday.
