Tiffykins 673 Posted May 17, 2010 Champ, I'm so glad to hear that they've got her on antibiotics, and fingers crossed that the leak is repaired. Hang in there, and know we're all here for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pnw218 14 Posted May 17, 2010 Update: We had the CT scan last night and the Dr. came in this morning to tell us everything looks good. She does have an infection from the drain site that was removed, but it is not spreading and they have her on antibiotics. The CT scan also showed the stents are still in place and they did not show any leakage. She will have to come back to the hospital next week for a couple days to have the stent removed, test for the leak, and replace the stents if the leak is still there, I'm praying it will NOT be there. Very good news!! I hope you are both able to get some well deserved rest today! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happyslvr 2 Posted May 18, 2010 I am very sorry for your wife and the pain and worry this is causing for you both. My hopes and prayers for that leak to heal and that this process will be bearable for your wife and yourself. Now is the time to muster up faith and ask the good Lord to provide for your needs. Jesus was called the great physician, may His healing touch your wife down to every cell in her body. And through Him may peace and security be restored to your family. Amen Lis!! I agree and I am lifting this family up in prayer!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
