Kat, my mom nearly died of a gangrenous bowel so I am so familiar with the whole nasty healing process, I was just ASTOUNDED when she got sent home so quickly. One of my clients had a similar cancer surgery and nearly died! The notion that anything that enters the body cavity is not a big deal is just atrocious. She is on TPN now (after a WEEK, now she's on TPN... my head is fucking exploding here) and I am hoping she gets to stay another week or so. Between the opiods, the CAT scan gunk, and everything else, she is NOT in great shape. I am so glad that they didn't find some hidden cancer, though, I was fearing the worst all day, waiting for her hub to call me back...
