Melissa went to Barnes West County today to have a test done that shows where the drainage she is having is coming from. There are two tracks that meet up and come out one hole into the intestine. One is a straight shot and the other zig-zags. Because the glue didn't hold they are looking at using a plug which is made specifically made for each use. It takes two weeks to come in so if it happens it will probably be the first part of July.
We were only at the hospital an hour. She was having a little pain from the procedure but she did take over driving home in New Florence on to home.

Wow we are a little behind
I went and saw the doc on June 2nd and found out he thought I had already got the glue thing done. Since I had not, he sent me up to the hospital. They pulled the JP drain and the small wound drain and filled them up with glue. They also pulled my central line for me. It was pretty painful and I hurt all night and it started leaking again so I went back on the 3rd. They refilled the wound with glue but it leaked by the time I got home that night. It is still leaking but for a while I thought it was leaking less. The next step with be to insert a plug if it doesn't stop leaking on its own. The only problem is it takes two weeks for it to come in, hopefully by then we will have the switching of insurance figured out.
Incase you are wondering I had very little problems with the wedding. Yes, I was very tired by the end but felix didn't show, nothing leaked, and if you didn't know I was sickly I'm not sure you could tell. The only problems were things I forgot to pack, like my medical sissors and tape. I've also had problems in the last couple of days keeping a good seal on the bag so I've had to change it a lot. Things will get better as the wound heals and I can use more tape.
So long for now, my husband just woke up from a nap so it is time to get the day started:)
