Just went down to the first floor to meet with the hunky Dr. Dozois. Surgery went well! He saw no evidence of a fistula which is great because that made it possible for him to go ahead and do the ileostomy take down. Soon and very soon, Julie will be able to poo like the rest of us again! She had a hernia because of the ileostomy and they repaired it with her own tissue instead of having to use mesh. Being typical Dr. Dozois, he said that it wasn't the healthiest bowel he had ever seen, but he thought it was as good as it could get with all the current treatments. So we are calling that success and even victory!!
Julie will be in recovery for a couple more hours, and then we will have a real room and maybe soon have some idea how long we will be here.
