Melissa had problems today with her bag leaking. When she changed it then she found that it had leaked under the tape for the wound vac. Then it was decided that the wound vac was not doing its job. What was needing to be sucked up was too thick and clogging things up. She now has a bag over that wound and needs to make sure and spend more time sitting up. The doctor thinks that if she sits up more then she won't have stool flowing out through her wound.

The doctors now say that because of these problems she will not get to go home until next week.
