... and so is the stomach tube, Whew!

I got to Andie's room this morning just as they were prepping her for the stomach tube to be removed - ... hung back by the door , and heard the little "pop" saw the balloon that had just come out and it was done. No big deal - they asked her if she felt okay, any nausea, any pain - she was kind of wincing... but refused Tylenol, any vomiting?
Well I could have answered that... uh, I didn't see anything moving in the wrong direction... I guess they have to go over their own checklist... after she had a few minutes to lie down off we went and she had her breakfast. Her day was uneventful and since there have been no issues at all with the trach tube or stomach tube so it looks like she's a go for a Tuesday release Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Hospital's 4th floor brain trauma unit.
The after - release details are still being worked out.
