hospital stay

Home for shower and more clean clothes. Here is a quick synopsis. Started J tube feeding a few days after surgery. Cloudy fluid in the chest tube. Probable leak in lymph system. Back to surgery on 11-3. Sealed up a leak. Recovery room - collapsed Left lung. To ICU, bi-pap machine reinflated lung. Started J tube feeding with cloudy fluid in the chest tube after a day. Back on TPN. Now is the waiting game to see if fluids clear and any leftover lymph leaks seal themselves. Phew, I'm off to the hospital again.

Until the next time,
Jan

PS He still has hair and could probably use a haircut!!
