I am out of the hospital now. I'll be splitting my time between here and Mom's for a little while, probably there rest of the week. I've got about 2 dozen staples in my gut, and of course both IV sites are giving me hell.

But he found the problem. There was a hole in the bottom of the pouch, and he fixed it. He also found a loops of bowel adhesed to the pouch itself, but since it didn't seem to be causing me any problems, he didn't mess with it beyond a very careful nicking of the adhesian holding it on there.

I'm OK. I'm on a liquid diet until the staples come out Thursday, but I'll be OK.
