Had another surgery today. Came thru great. Sewed him back together and NO, we don't get to call him lefty. They've got something called a VAC hooked up to his abdominal wound. They cut a filter/sponge to fit, then make it airtight and hook up a vac. This only gets changed Mon, Wed, Fri. Less discomfort for Mike than the twice daily bandage changing. This sucks out any drainage and quickens the healing process. He's talking coming home sometime next week. Whee. Can't wait to get my man home. Thank you for refreshing this thread. I came on yesterday to post and it was gone. :( Of course I didn't know how to find it. Anyway, I only saw Mike for a couple of minutes today. I took a day off and went to the movies, 3 actually.
