Thanks for the update, I'm glad recovery has been pretty smooth. I agree that now that he is eating AND walking that will probably help with the gas pain. Are they giving him anything to help? I know that is one thing Justin has problems with as long as he is taking pain meds so he takes, let me go check we have 2 HUGE bottle still,Miralax (polyethylene glycol 3350 nf it that matters) until he is off them. BUT he HATES it, its a powder you mix with somethong (water juice ect) but Justin says it tastes like chewing a styrofoam cup.
