Monday Update

7:30PM Not much to report today. It is going to be a few days before we know more but wanted everyone to know that Mario is fine, he's on some pain meds and a bit groggy. You'll also see in the photo that he has a tube in his nose - this goes to his stomach to remove anything there...they don't want too much moving down through the digestive system yet. The system "goes to sleep" for a bit after the surgery so they need to give everything time to "wake up". He did poop a very small amount this evening, which is a very good sign. They expect it to take a couple days to see enough bowel activity that we can feed him again. We're taking Eva to the hospital tmrw to see him so it will be nice to have the whole family together for a few hours. We'll update as we learn more.
