The last couple days

So the last couple of days have all ran together. Day 2 of bowel prep went good. Tyler was pretty hungry, but did well. Day 3 we checked into Primarys and started the full clean out. That was fun if you know what I mean lol. They had to put in a ng tube and give him a lot of golightly. He broke loose after about 5 or 6 hours of the yucky stuff. The next day was surgery and that went very well.
The surgery took close to 5 hours which really seemed like an eternity to me. They did get done earlier than planned. Which was good lol. He pulled through like a champ. He slept the rest of the day and night.
The day after surgery he got up and took 4 walks. His doctor was very pleased with his progress so he took out the ng tube.
Today is 2 days after and he is allowed to have sips with ice chips. If everything is tolerated nicely then tonight he can have a full liquid diet. There is one small problem right now. He has 2 tubes coming out of his tummy and one of them is not draining at all. We are waiting for the doc to come in and give his opinion. If everything goes well he can eat real food tomorrow.
Tyler is such a CHAMP. He is more and more everyday my hero. He is such a strong and courageous little man. I love him with all of my heart.

Have a blessed day!

I will add pictures later.
