CT looked good - still in the hospital

Well, they are talking about pulling the drainage tube and sending Elizabeth home again. Her CT looked pretty good. The fluid collection is about the size of a grape. We also got the results on the last fluid sample. It did have bile in it. Hopefully, the leakage point has sealed up on its own. No real good way to verify that other than monitoring the fluid output.

The good news is that she is feeling much better these days. She is definitely happy and playful. Also, that means she is also her charming demanding hospital self as well. When she is feeling good, she seems to like and maybe take advantage of being waited on hand and foot!

So, as soon as someone makes a decision to pull the drain, she will be back home that day or the next.

Just waiting it out some more.
Thanks for checking in on the updates….
Talk to you later.
