Here we go again

This Wednesday Nate goes back in for another surgery. It's called an ileostomy takedown - look it up if you care to know the details. We are very hopeful that this time around things will go much more smoothly than back in January - we're not in the middle of any flare-ups with Crohn's, different medication that seems to be mostly doing the trick, and we've been able to plan for this one. It will be SO NICE to have Nate's Mom and sister up here to lean on (probably quite heavily). Here's hoping for a complication-free operation and speedy recovery!
