They found that Emma’s bowels are cramping (gas pains). They have discontinued the epidural and are giving her morphine. They gave her a suppository to try to make her have a bowel movement. So far that hasn’t helped. It did help yesterday, so they are hoping that it helps again. They have opened the G/J tubes to help release some of the gas. They have been getting a lot of gas out of the G tube. Grandma Carol
