Gabriel is back in the Hospital

Gabriel was having difficulties with his bottle feeds so last Thurs (4/10) we stopped feeding him by bottle and were using on the NG-tube. However his reflux was getting worse and he was having "episodes" of discomfort that would last over an hour at times. When he wasn't having these "episodes" he was doing just fine. He is gaining weight (7lbs 10oz) but his "episodes" are getting worse. Upon his visit to the GI doctor they witnessed one of his "episodes" and he immediately admitted to the hospital for observation.

He is currently on Previcid to help his Acid Reflux which everyone believes is the underlining cause of all his discomfort.
