This morning Anara woke up whining and uncomfortable. During the night her catheter fell out of her stoma and since her suprapubic isn't working, she was completely full. Nate and I tried to get the catheter in but we were unable to force it through, and so we went to the hospital for an early morning visit. Anara's MD was able to use a special catheter and drain her reservoir.
Right now the catheter is taped in to prevent the same problem from occurring again. This afternoon we will go to the hospital and Anara will have another procedure to remove the non-working suprapubic and place another emergency tube. We are hoping that the channel issue corrects itself but if it fails to fix itself over the next few months we might end up with another surgery to fix the channel or explore some other options.
Anara will have this small procedure around 5:00pm. Please pray for everything to go well as far as the placement of the new tube and removal of the old. Pray that she does great with the anesthesiology. Pray that her channel fixes itself and we have no more issues with being able to insert her catheter.
Thanks!
