All Backed Up

Well that's what I get for declaring that we would have a routine procedure and have nothing to report until the weekend.

Ginny went in for her ureter stent replacement today.  No big deal, this is her 9th placement.  It turns out that her stent was all backed up...clogged.  The Dr. suspects that she her right kidney has not passed fluid for 2-3 weeks.  She has been treating a UTI this past week without success, the reason is now clear.

So the old barnacle covered stent is out and a new one is in.  System fluids are flowing as they should and her kidney is likely signing the Hallelujah Chorus.

She is in the hospital for the night for observation.  We are hoping for a good night's sleep and a release around noon tomorrow.

Love
Kir&Gin
