Wacky remained in the hospital ward since he was re-admitted to it last July from the dormitory following complications in his health. His lymphatic fluid is still closely being monitored because this would indicate if he is ready to be discharged from the ward. Ideally, this should amount to only 100 ml. As Wacky's drain is inconsistent (300-400 ml four weeks ago, but now has shot up to 700 ml) -- he is not yet ready to leave the hospital.
Raymond and Caress have considered coming home with the drainage still attached to Wacky (it has been done before by other patients) but the doctor advised that they should at least stay in the dormitory for 2 weeks to ensure that no complications will arise outside the hospital. Possible problems that may be encountered are the electrolyte imbalance which will affect Wacky's appetite and the bacterial infection resulting from the tube attached inside his body for the drain. Right now, the couple is waiting for feedback from the doctors if Wacky can be discharged from the ward to the dormitory, then to finally come home.
The fund allotted for Wacky's operation has already been used up but thanks to the effort of the nurses and other patients from the Liver Transplant section of the Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, they were able to raise a considerable amount that would surely help Wacky.
Please continue to pray with us for Wacky's complete recovery. Thank you!
