2/24 Last episode??

Well, Anya started into another vomiting episode this evening around 8:00pm.  Hopefully this will be the last one.  We're going into Thursday's surgery hoping correcting the hiatal hernia and redoing the nissen will put an end to these episodes, yet understanding that it may not be our solution.  The only good coming out of this episode is that it affirms our decision to go ahead with the surgery.  After last week we restarted her Zantac and Prevacid and kept her laying only on her left-side (good for reflux, bad for scoliosis).  Earlier today, after making it a full eight days without getting sick we thought (again) that maybe she'd be fine w/o the operation and foolishly started to have second thoughts.....  So this at least puts those thoughts to rest..   It's been about 3 1/2 hours since she started and Anya continues to get sick every 5-10 minutes.  It goes without saying but I do sure hope this is the last episode...  If it's not, it will be painful for all of us.
