Bettyjo Update

Bettyjo went to her ENT physician today. She still has a hole in her esophagus, and is now developing an infection, possibly caused by some permanent stitches put in during the last procedure in May.

He wants to re-install the diversion funnel, through her mouth in an out patient procedure, on October 27th. The last time he installed it by opening her up, and the funnel itself caused a lot of pain. Please pray that will not be the case this time! And, that this procedure will allow the esphagus to heal.
