Dang it - he had a leak. (I would have liked to have said something stronger, but I know I'm writing to a mixed audience.) Every time Trav ate, he came down with a high fever. Although, the two studies came back looking good, his doctor felt that there was probably a tiny leak, and he was right.
Trav went back into surgery yesterday. The leak was found where the new connection was between the esophagus and stomach. Basically, we are back to day 1 in the recovery process. Travis was very disappointed, he doesn't like being in the hospital (don't know who would).
We will have to wait until Wednesday for the next study to see if the leak has healed properly and go from there. His doctor refuses to cut any corners or rush things. We all need to be patient- especially the patient. Please send your positive thoughts to Trav that time flies during the upcoming days.

Oh man. We're thinking about you nonstop and sending our positive thoughts and prayers your way. Hang in there!
I check your blog every time I check Mandy's. We're thinking about you too, and praying for your Travis as well as ours, and all your family. Thanks for sharing with us. I love all your positive thoughts!
Love, Mandy's mom
I was going to fill in the expletives for you, but decided against it since I'm constantly praying for you and Trav to be comforted and patient this week, AND for no LEAKAGE!!
