"His Entrails Gushed Out"

We were expecting Thursday to be a pretty normal day. Pat went to work expecting a call from Janet early afternoon to come and pick her and Caleb up from the hospital. Well...

The resident came to remove the tube and drain out of Caleb's side. Unfortunately, the tube was not the only thing that came out. Yes, our apologies to all our weak stomach friends, but Janet got her first look at the inside of Caleb. Whether it was muscle, fat, or other we know not. The resident didn't know what to do - he tried to stuff it back in - I'm not kidding - reminds me of one of those stuff your own teddy bear places at the local mall.

Well, they finally cut it and stitched it up, and we stayed yet one more day at Jackson.

We did go home Friday.

Caleb is doing well and eating better.
