Surgery results

Brandon’s surgery went well. It took a long time and waiting so long made us very nervous. When it was all over the surgeon sat down and explained what happened. In order to hook everything back up correctly they had to cut out another small portion of his colon. While this sounds scary, the surgeon said it shouldn’t have any long-term effect on him. When we left him he was still pretty sedated. We have called since and he is starting to wake up. We will have to watch and see how well he recovers.

Katelyn has eaten well so far tonight. The nurse told us that, if all goes well throughout the night tonight, she might suggest that we continue during the day and turn this 12 hour feeding period into a 24 hour period. It is kind of scary how fast things seem to be moving with Katelyn.
