Good news is Melissa is getting stronger and moving around better. I won't say the bad news is but just the news is that they took the wound vac off probably to stay and are wet dressing the top of the surgical wound and dry packing the bottom section. The top part is looking nice and is healing well. Her belly button just looks funny now. The bottom portion is not having as easy of a time. It still has a tube coming out to drain stuff but is also leaking stuff from the wall of the cavity. Melissa discovered that yesterday so the doctor hasn't seen it. Because it is dry packed when it becomes saturated then she has a mess. That happens at least three times a day if not more. She is becoming very frustrated and discouraged. Last night we we were ready to leave when she discovered that things needed to be cleaned up. Luckily we were still there to get her supplies. Melissa doctors were gone yesterday but Drew and Melissa did talk to the on call doctor about going to see some one at Barnes. They called her surgeon to give him the heads up and stranglely enough her surgeon and the doctor that she would see are both at the same conference and can talk about her case. Hopfully that will happen soon.
