Yesterday WWOM was given the option to either have the wet/dry bandages or the wound vac. Yesterday she choose the wet dry option but today after talking with doctor decided to go with the wound vac. He thought it was a better option since she has a 5" open wound and the wound vac will be better at helping that to heal. Several pros made her choose it and she also did not want to mess with emptying the drain of the wet dry.
Mom also took alittle trip down memory lane and ate some cream of wheat. The TPN drip is still on because she obviously cannot eat the nutrients that she needs. Her zinc level was low and they will be replacing that today as it is important for healing.
She reports a good night or sleep which for a normal person might not be good but with WWOM it probably means she slept a few hours and doesn't want to complain. She used the epidural drip a few times during the night and was able to take a walk this around the Surgical loop with her gown flapping in the breeze. Enjoying the scenery.
