Kaelyn had a cholangiogram and tube change last thursday and they removed the sludge ball! It was so exciting to hear that! The IR Doc came in after surgery and told me they took it out and he was ecstatic! I love it when the docs come in excited, that means something good has happened! He also said that her bile ducts look great. I am really excited about that.
They broke up the sludge ball in to two pieces and they got two pieces out, but Kaelyn is having white stools again with some burning bowel movements. That usually means that her tube is plugged. So I am wondering if maybe some debris was left over and has plugged up the tube. Bahhhh....oh well, at least the major obstacle is out. If we have to do a few more frequent tube changes so be it. I am just thankful and hoping that this will mean fewer infections for the sweety.
Well, the kids are on spring break this week, so we should have some fun. We might go to the zoo sometime as long as we can keep Kaelyn out of the hospital (knock on wood!).
Love you all!
Angie
