The Sutter Health Wound Specialist visited today and was pleased with the healing of Steve's surgical incision. There remains only a 3 cm cavern that will need to be packed and changed daily. Tomorrow we will return to Stanford for a follow-up ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-Pancreatogram). My understanding is that this procedure will confirm that bile is draining properly following the placement of the stent several weeks ago and the removal of the bile drainage tube a week ago.
Steve's energy is increasing and he's enjoying getting out, even in the cold SF summer.

Dear Gretchen & Steve,
ReplyDeleteThis is GREAT news. So glad to hear that Steve is feeling better every day. What an incredibly challenging 2.5 months you have had.
Thank you for keeping us up to date.
