If you bothered to read Carrie’s post, you sort of know how the day went yesterday. Instead of being in La Quinta for some tennis and fun, I was at the hospital from 5:40am to 6:30pm. I did get outside for about 30 seconds to make a patient exchange with my neighbor in the hospital parking lot. I have logged more hours in the hospital this past month than House. I will be briefer than Carrie. As each doctor asked her what brings her to the ER today, she would carefully explain that the post operative fluid between her epithelial layer and stomach muscles has seemed to move higher, pushing on her diaphragm and also causing pressure on the nerve endings which are already sensitive due to the healing process taking place in her abdomen. After reviewing the tests and consultation with 6 highly educated physicians over the course of 7 hours, the urologist came in and informed Carrie that “You need to poop.” You can imagine the relief and joy I felt at that moment. I have alerted the Eisenhower Medical Center in Palm Springs that we will be in the area so they can have a full medical team standing by should this condition arise during our trip. Thanks for your prayers.

I always knew Carrie was full of the spirit. Was not aware that she was full of anything else. Carrie, if you are still on iron pills, cut back as iron is a very powerful plug.
