Afternoon update... Feb 6 2012

Well, the test went good this morning. Surgery will be tomorrow at 7 am. They will reverse his stoma, however the xrays showed that his colon has started to collapse, Dr calkins thinks this is from not using it in 6 weeks. They will use a balloon device to expand it out a little and see what happens. He hopes that the balloon will be all he needs.  The balloon will be blown up and then let down and taken out same day! We are looking at being here at least a week, realisticly he said more like two weeks. We have to wait for Korbins colon to respond. I am very worried, just thinking about how last time went. I have had my share of tears today.  The kinda upside to today was Korbin was playing with a little boy and us moms started talking and the little boy is going through what Korbin did 2 years ago she was so greatful we sat and cried for a few minutes together. I learned crying with a complete stranger is so different than crying with a close friend. We promised one another to keep in contact, they will be having some procedures done tomorrow as well. So please say a lil prayer for Nora and Juila...We are going to go to "The domes" tonight, its a flower thing that you can walk around in and they have a speical light show. Then to bed for us, we have to be up and gone by 5:30 we have to be hospital by 6 for check in and start the sleepy medicane.  Ill keep you posted best I can... Unsure how long surgery will take...Ill post as soon as I know!
