Out of the Procedure!

Dr. Gopal was just in here and said Matt did real well.  He said that the tumor on his liver was pressing against the plastic stint and squeezing it so nothing could get through.  He had to put two metal stints in but he said the fluid was flowing really good when he was done.  He said all Matt's numbers from his liver and kidney should come down and his biliruben should come down.  He did say however Matt will be in more pain that the procedure he did last week.

The doctor said they will have to increase his pain medication for 48 hours and he should feel better after that.  Matt is in recovery sleeping.  In about an hour we will go
up to his room.  He made me promise to have apple juice, applesauce waiting for him.
He wants to wake up and be on a liquid diet right away!!!  Oh Matt!!!

I promised to see what I could do.  I am guessing he will go home tomorrow hopefully.  He does not want to spend his weekend in the hospital.  He already missed seeing Casey's performance with the alumni at the half time of Watertown homecoming game with her dance routine.

Thank you for your prayers and helping Matt get through this difficult time. God Bless all of our dear friends and family!!
