Hello all! I thought I would post a little update since there has been some activity in the life of Serenity. As of yesterday, she officially has a bag for her stoma, because, wait for it...... she has been pooping! A lot! I know, we have been getting excited about bodily functions the past few weeks, but that's just it, bodily functions means the body is functioning!! I haven't heard much more information on her intestines other than stool is flowing through, which is good. Also, the doctors are talking about starting feedings soon, which would be awesome!
On a not as good note, there is a tear at the base of the stoma that is getting worse. We are watching it closely, because there is a chance that the tear could get so bad that the stoma could fall off and her intestine would slip back inside of her body. This would not be good.
Other than that, not much has changed. I hope everyone is having a good day.
Love from the Nichols <3
