Sister-in-law is recovering, but is not a happy camper. She still has a tube through her nose going down into her stomach. She thought it would be removed today, but the surgeon says it is still pulling a lot of stuff through that tube. She still has had nothing to eat or drink since Thursday and she is getting hungry. They found a large pocket of infection which involved a tube, an ovary and the appendix. All of them were removed and the whole cavity washed out to get rid of infection. Obviously, this could not be done laporoscopically. She had too much company today and is now suffering from a really sore throat from trying to talk with that tube down her throat. I hope tomorrow is a better day for her. I have to take my dad to get his stitches out where he had his port removed tomorrow. His surgeon is the same as my sister-in-law's.
