Yesterday we clamped my g tube so that hopefully we could start directing things to move through my ostomy bag like they’re supposed to. And so far so good, it’s working! 🥳 Yesterday was just on clear fluids – pretty much my intake is a lot of apple juice with small amounts of broth for lunch and dinner 🤪
On my second walk of the day I was also able to get in and out of bed completely by myself which was a really big step for me 💪🏼💪🏼
Today the plan is to get me off my epidural and taking IV or pill form pain meds instead. I also am allowed to try a bit of actual. real. food (!!!) to see how it makes me feel. Soo I will let y’all know how it goes.
Hope everyone is staying warm and dry ❤️🔥

Oh and lastly my first super gourmet post surgery breakfast: toast w strawberry jam, cream of wheat, and peach mango yogurt 😊
