Mom had good night and is feeling better today. Kristen stayed with her last night. They have walked this morning and she is sitting up in a chair. Dr. came in and said they would try clear liquids again today and hopefully the bowels will wake up and get active. Won't be coming home today but maybe tomorrow. Dr said it is not an unusual thing for the bowels to be lazy especially as much as they had to manipulate them during surgery. This happened one other time during one of her surgeries. She does have some bowel sounds so they think it will be ok eventually. She is a little mad about not going home. I am back at work today and have to go to Charlotte for a couple of days for the hospital but plan on going over to Winston from Charlotte if she is still there on Wed. Jerry is going today to spend the night and if by chance she gets to come home, Jerry will follow them so he can help get her in and out of the car on the way home.
