Dr. Chapman (Dr. Jiminez's partner), urologist came by to explain that he'll have them clear the nephrostomy tube (which has stopped flowing). He also explained that she'll likely go home after her bypass surgery with this tube and that this isn't a big deal. She'll just have to fuss with it. Then, when the heart doctors feel that she's sufficiently recovered from her heart surgery to undergo another general anesthesia, they'll take care of the stones.
Dr. Abbas, infectious disease doctor came and reiterated that we have to get the nephrostomy tube cleared to get that infection cleared. He'll switch her antibiotics to pill form.
We'll post when that tube is cleared.
