    There is no possibility of repairing the bladder?

    The bladder burst at 15 weeks, just before he was big enough to try a repair. At this point there is no amitotic fluid and the lungs are not developing.

    Yes, he could be healed by some miracle, but it is not expected. She would just like to hold him before he passes.

  2. Update: Baby Zeke has a strong heartbeat and my daughter is able to feel him move. She also has placenta previa and has been scheduled for a C-section mid-June. Her prayer is that she has a little time with baby Zeke before he passes.

  3. The estate did not have to go through probate. I was on all her bank accounts so she was just taken off. She was living in assisted living, so no house or car or much of anything. And her other accounts had beneficiaries listed. No need for probate. Her bills were coming to me as well as her medicare/ tricare statements.

  4. I just received a bill from a collection agency for my mom. She has been dead for 2 years! And the bill was from a time when she was either in the hospital from her stroke or in the rehab center afterward. It is from September 2020. She had Tricare for life and Medicare. That bill would have been 100% covered. Not certain what I should do.

    Was the vomiting and headache from the tests or is she always like that?

    I think the vomiting and headache is from the test. Usually she is very very painfully bloated from fructans.

  6. My daughter has been fighting digestive problems for years. She just spent 8 hours doing breath tests for glucose, fructose, and fructans. The test shows no problems. She has not been able to tolerate onion, garlic, or wheat products for years (fructans). But the test showed no problem. She barely made it home before vomiting 4 times and she has a massive headache. I do not understand.

    our youth consume more, but in many ways, they have no choice.

    But in so many ways it is a choice. And I am not just talking youth. The fast food industry itself is a huge indicator. And all the companies that make the meal kits you can prepare at home, that are delivered weekly. There is so much thrown away here. People don't cook.

  8. I am so very sorry. It is hard to be the parent of a child facing/experiencing the loss of a baby. I am walking my daughter through this right now. I never feel like I know what to say, but I am there if she ever wants to talk. Your emotions are all over the place right now. You are grieving your grandchild as well as trying to comfort your child. My thoughts are with you.

    If you have a near perfect SAT, does NMF matter

    To some schools it does (or did). Especially for scholarships. Her 11th grade PSAT was a fluke test. Foe some reason she did not make semi-finalist. A month later her near perfect SAT was not enough to be considered for top scholarships. But her NMF friends with much lower SAT scores were.

    It was stressful to have to beg people to trade seats (some people said no, so we had to ask several people), then we ended up with the car seat in a row it shouldn't have been (behind the exit row, if I recall, so as the plane was taxiing to the runway, the flight attendant told us and we had this last minute rush to get it moved somewhere it was allowed to be).

    We were told to move a car seat as the plane was taxing also. This was 32 years ago. My husband looked at the attendant and said you have been walking this aisle the whole time without saying something. Yo can stop the taxi or we will do it once we are in the air, but it is not safe to do it while the plane is taxiing. She said it must be changed and we cannot stop the taxi. Husband said we will then do it in the air because that is the safest time.

  11. I just looked at Rod and Staff 6. When you take out the writing lessons, there are only 100 lessons. I just did a quick look so don't know if it meets your other criteria. We did this in 5th grade and she has now graduated from college so a long time ago. (This was our first level of Rod and Staff.)
