Hi All, well we are slowly, slowly progressing forward. He is still in ICU but they are going to move him to a step down unit today I Hope. He is starting to drink liquids and is having a lot of cramping which is not unusual as he has not had any food in his stomach for about 40 days now. Then they are going to try soft foods. He is hating the hospital stuff says everything tastes like SH## I can concur with that. SO hopefully I can start bringing him in some food with flavor once he is aloud to have it.

His kidneys are not improving like they thought so he is still doing dialysis every other day. His ileostomy is still putting out way more fluid than it should be and his bowel and colon are very swollen so they are still worried about infection but for now his white count is down and he is off the antibiotics.

He is so weak that he can not even stand up on his own. He is getting frustrated as he is not able to rest well but hopefully once they get him into another room where the nurses do not come in as ofter he will rest better. As he really does need the rest.

I just keep hoping and praying we keep moving in the right direction, but I am scared crapless that something else may happen and I just can not help it as I have seen to many situations go the wrong way with him to this point. We still have to make sure his bowels are functioning and processing the fluids and stuff he is eating but the big test will be solids. He has a long way to go but I just keep praying that we stay in the right direction.

I have been showing him your messages on the front page and he is very grateful and said to say thank you to all of you. they brought a tear to his eyes. I will post more in a few days, Keep the prayers going as we are not in the safety zone yet.

Thanks again for everything!!!
Jules

look into "aloe vera" water (and centrifuged gel)
it's distilled yet still has some of the internal
healing properties like nothing else known to man

it's not just for sunburns and topical applications
ALOE Vera cactus heals you outside and inside
and should be used in every hospital but it isn't
because it belongs to the biological (Herbal) realm instead
of the strict chemical alternatives physcians rely on.

his diet has to be bland from now on....(nothing overly spicy)

My sister Anne has just now gone thru the same proceedure
with 1/3 colon removed and cancer @ stage two eliminated
without the need for chemotherapy (thank god).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

the other miracle liquid is chlorophyll as it is almost identical to blood
except for one mineral but its a strong tasting beverage
so you have to mask the taste with another very healing liquid
which is carrot juice... chock full of beta carotein thats converted to
vitamin A for maximum healing effect !

Talk to the doctors about it (they won't know...of course)
...or read up on it...as it gives you natural abundant energy!

of course , the day a hospital starts juicing carrots for patients
hell will freeze over.... instead they serve up this pasturized juice
that has no healing attributes what so ever and only has taste.

Both of you are in my prayers and thoughts...
