 Korbin had some minor surgery this morning, I didnt know he was going to have it until after we got here, they changed his C-Costomey Button, which he has to be "dwlighted" for. He did well, he blood a little more than they like, as long as there is no blood around the site in the morning we get to go home. ( we are currently resting at the hotel). IF there is blood they will have to pull the button and put a different one in and change the size. Korb has lost enough weight since his surgery in Dec. that it has affected the fit of his button.  However Dr Sood (gi doc) was VERY impressed how well the treatements seem to be going, he said that we have a 57% chance of maybe getting rid of button (long term maybe in 2 years). He doesnt have to see korb for a year, however we have to have check ups with local peds doc. As far as the surgery side of it, were not released yet. It maybe a few months yet, Dr Calkins (suergeon) fears scar tissue because of the leaks and infection.  If he begins to have scar tissue it could block the colon (then he will have to have surgery). So he wants to keep a close eye on it. Thank you for being so supportive of us and praying for us.
