I am back at my hotel in HOU and am very disappointed. The test today revealed that my colon has still yet to properly heal so I will not have the surgery to reverse my illeostomy. During surgery today the interventional radiology doctor replaced the drain tube with a different style in hopes that this will allow the colon to heal. Tomorrow I have a meeting with my surgical oncologist to discuss our options. I am guessing that he will suggest keeping this drain in for another 6-8 weeks and then retest.
I expect to return to KC late tomorrow evening and will be back in the office on Thursday.
This is very disappointing to me but I will continue to keep my head up and do my best to not let this, or anything else, get me down.
