Great news...Jim doesn't have an infection! Dr is thinking his body isn't tolerating this particular tube feeding so will try a different one. Jim told them maybe it has Lima beans in...he does not like Lima beans:)
He slept good until around 4 then it's been to the bathroom regularly.
Will be taking out one of the drains this AM, then after trying soup and if that goes well, will get the other one out.
Dr said if the diarrhea can get under control then we may be discharged tomorrow. Nurse thinks that's a bit premature. Need to get the fluids and his body going towards a more positive direction. It's a matter of taking "one day at a time"...
Some of you have ask if Jim had surgery by laproscopy or if he was opened up. He has about a 5" incision.
We did get another walk in late last evening...2 for the day. A big difference from the day before!
