Today's starting off well.

George and I got up about the same time we always have, despite him being up an extra hour last night. There's leaking coming from the stoma, but I was told to expect that. Especially on the first day. Later this afternoon, I can take off the dressing and we can clean the area, if needed. But, otherwise leave it open to air and left alone. It should heal on it's own. George is sipping on Pepsi, but waited until this morning to ask for it. So, that's a good thing. He also asked for some yogert, too. And I'll see if I can get him taking other things as well. Despite having no tube, he said he felt full. I like hearing that.
