Another hard day. The new medication seems to work better than the Morphine. He still gets a shot of blood-thinner, and also some Pepsid in his IV to prevent acid reflux. Still no food or drink. He got up twice today and walked in place. Got very nauseated...and dizzy. He got some anti-nausea stuff beforehand, but it didn't seem to help. However, he just told me he thinks his stoma just farted. This is a good sign. When he starts passing gas through the stoma that means his stomach is starting to work again....and hopefully they can start him on at least some liquids. I can't help but think that he will have more energy once he can get some food in him. Hopefully it won't make him vomit. He told me today that he didn't think it was going to be this hard.
