After a day spent at the doctors office, followed by the ER, we are now at Children's Hospital with Sona, preparing for surgery. A nice radiology technician finally discovered the reason for Sona's forceful and frequent vomiting... it's pyloric stenosis . Basically she has a muscle that's over grown and it isn't allowing her stomach to drain normally, so the body drains the stomach through the alternate exit (aka the mouth).

The surgery is fairly common and in theory should go quickly and smoothly. After that it'll be one more night in the hospital on the most uncomfortable hide-a-bed in the world, and then home! It'l be nice to have this all behind us. In the mean time though I'm very sore and very tired. I can only imagine how Sona is feeling. Being a kid sucks.
