Bridge finally had her surgery yesterday around 5 pm. They were supposed to bring her down at 1pm for surgery at 2 but they were running late, so we didn't get back to our room until around 7:30pm last night. They removed her dialysis catheter as well as her JP drain and took down her bandage over her incision. I have been telling them for 3 days that I thought she had an infection right below her incision. It is warm and pink and shows some streaking into her groin as well as the top of her right leg they have basically looked at it but never did anything, finally I was like, could you please when you are in surgery with her, take a better look. They came back with telling me that she has cellulitis in that area and will need to be on an antibiotic for 5 days. ( the best part is that most people who develop cellulitis get it in the leg and are immunosupressed, just like miss Bridge, so I have no idea why they wouldn't listen to me), mother knows best. 1 step forward and 2 steps back. This morning Bridge woke up and has a small appetite. She ate 1 roll and has asked for more to drink. If she meets her required intact and continues to void and have a BM then they might release her this weekend. We can not wait to get out of here!!!
