The take down

The Doctor has decided to repair Clem's ileostomy tomorrow at 12:30. Good news!! All looks good. A potential hospital stay of 2 to 5 days. He is ready to have this part behind him. More details to follow from the Hospital.

When you say "repair it," what do you mean exactly? Do you mean they are going to reverse it and give the normal plumbing a try?

Yep. That was the plan all along to let his colon rest while healing. We expected for him to have the ostomy for a few months but the Doc thought that all looked good. His stoma was actually a loop which was pulled up through the wall and secured so it was never cut in half. This made for an easy reversal.
