Paul went back in this afternoon. The surgeon found the hole causing the leak and glued it back together without incident. He's now in the recovery room and eagerly looking forward to a shower, or at least the closest you can get without getting out of bed. He'll still be stuck in bed with the drain for the next few days. The current plan is to get the next scan on Thursday to see how things stand. The doctor expects him to go home around Saturday. We're cautiously optimistic that things are going to be looking up from now.
There, this time I got to write a post that wasn't all bad news!
For anyone in the Bay Area who would like to send cards, books about the Greek Olympics, or other legally transportable items, I'm flying to San Diego on Thursday morning and would be happy to take stuff. Call me at 510-206-5662.
Love,
Kate

Kate-I've never met you but as a concerned friend I truly appreciate the updates. I am glad you were able to give some optimistic news this time.
Cheree and Paul-You continue to be in my prayers that your spirits are in a good place and able to endure this difficult time. I pray for healing and recovery and that peace finds you soon.
Lots of love and smiles...m
Glad to hear it went well. Any chance some well wishers can say hi in the next couple of days?
Cheree,
I know you and Paul are going through a lot and all of our thoughts are with both of you. I know Paul is looking forward to a sponge bath like George had in the Seinfeld episode.
Best of everything the MMI Team
Glue...is there anything it can't do? Good to hear Paul will be home in time for Cinco De Mayo Carnitas and Margaritas. Way to keep us up to date Kate. What an awsome sister!
I sent a check so you can tip the nurse for an extra sponge bath
wishing you a speedy recovery...
Deb
