Hubby had passed the MCUG film (of Baby C’s kidneys and urinary tract system) to his cousin who went to London last week.  The MCUG film has been passed to hubby’s uncle who is a heart surgeon in London, who will then pass the film to his friends who are pediatric nephrologists.  We will get the opinion on Baby C’s condition from the British nephrologists before we come to a decision.

Yesterday, hubby and I spoke to our friend who is a anesthesiologist in one of the private hospitals here.  He advised us to seek as many opinions as we can get from doctors.  He told us to never ever settle with the advise from just a single doctor.  When asked what the risks are of a baby going through a surgery, he told us that babies have amazing recovery ability and are really resilient.  The major risk and concern would be the loss of blood. 

Whilst waiting for the British nephrologists to revert, I have drawn up a feeding schedule for Baby C.  What prompted me to draw up a schedule is that at times, I had forgotten to feed baby with certain things.  There are just too many things that I have to feed her everyday from her antibiotics to probiotics, different types of nutritional supplements, cranberry juice and barley water and not forgetting my milkie.  I have to space out the feeding so that she will not get too full for the next feeding.  Also the probiotics and antibiotics must be given after an interval of at least 4 hours.  This feeding thingy is really draining me out mentally and physically… but if this can prevent a UTI attack, there will not be a single complaint from me.  I will do anything to save my precious baby.
