The transplant team wanted to be cautious with the situation, so they advised the family to bring her back in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So far, Magnolia has handled everything incredibly well. She underwent a scoping procedure to determine what was causing the bleeding. During the procedure, the doctors found several ulcers in her throat and esophagus, as well as around the opening of her stomach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They also determined that her NG tube had been positioned too far in and may have been causing additional irritation to those areas. The team applied medication directly around the ulcerated areas to help with healing and pulled the NG tube farther out to reduce the irritation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her family is so thankful that the doctors were able to identify what was causing the bleeding and make the necessary adjustments to help Magnolia heal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of now, Magnolia remains admitted so her medical team can monitor her closely and make sure the bleeding does not continue. Yet, through everything she continues to go through, Magnolia still finds a reason to smile. \ud83d\udc9b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Un regreso inesperado a Duke<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anoche, Magnolia y su familia tuvieron que hacer el dif\u00edcil viaje de regreso a Duke despu\u00e9s de notar sangre en el v\u00f3mito de Magnolia. El equipo de trasplante quiso tomar todas las precauciones necesarias ante la situaci\u00f3n, por lo que les recomend\u00f3 regresar al hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hasta el momento, Magnolia ha enfrentado todo incre\u00edblemente bien. Le realizaron una endoscopia para determinar qu\u00e9 estaba causando el sangrado. Durante el procedimiento, los m\u00e9dicos encontraron varias \u00falceras en su garganta y es\u00f3fago, as\u00ed como alrededor de la entrada de su est\u00f3mago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tambi\u00e9n determinaron que su sonda NG estaba colocada demasiado adentro y que posiblemente estaba causando irritaci\u00f3n adicional en esas \u00e1reas. El equipo aplic\u00f3 medicamento directamente alrededor de las zonas afectadas por las \u00falceras para ayudar con la sanidad y retir\u00f3 un poco la sonda NG para reducir la irritaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Su familia est\u00e1 profundamente agradecida de que los m\u00e9dicos hayan podido identificar la causa del sangrado y realizar los ajustes necesarios para ayudar a Magnolia a sanar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Por ahora, Magnolia permanece hospitalizada para que su equipo m\u00e9dico pueda monitorearla de cerca y asegurarse de que el sangrado no contin\u00fae. Y aun en medio de todo lo que sigue enfrentando, Magnolia contin\u00faa encontrando una raz\u00f3n para sonre\u00edr. \ud83d\udc9b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Unexpected Trip Back to Duke Last night, Magnolia and her family had to make the difficult trip back to Duke after they noticed blood in Magnolia\u2019s vomit.
