Thanks for all of your email responses "standing with us" in this! Daryl's procedure this morning went well. The opening from his stomach into his intestines (which was re-connected during the initial surgery) was really small, which was likely the culprit. Some of that was due to swelling. The physician was able to stretch out the opening a great deal. Daryl has been sleeping SO WELL since the procedure - I'm thankful (and he is too) that he's getting some overdue rest. He can try a clear liquid diet today, but so far hasn't been awake enough to really try anything. We're hopeful that now he can move forward and start trying to get some nutrition in again. We're blessed by your support and will keep updating his status.
