The doctors had a test run today with contrast going through a tube in Melissa's stoma. They filled her full. Basically they found out what we already knew. She has a fistula between her intestine and the abscess. It is allowing poop to travel out through her drain and surgical incision. Because they have inserted two new tubes they are at this point blocking things off and hopefully allowing things to heal. She is still having some problems with nausea but did get to eat a liquid supper tonight. Those who know her know how much she likes that. NOT!!!
