quick update

The doctors and nurses and all involved continue to be delighted with Stu's progress. Several of the major tubes have been removed, he is walking laps around the hospital ward, and he wishes he could have more than ice chips, but until his new connections heal, nothing can go through the system, so everything he swallows and anything his belly makes on its own is immediately vacuumed out through the tube in his nose into the container on the wall.

Too graphic? That's nothing. Medical science is amazing.

So is my kid.
