Jeanie I don't think there is anything else they are watching for but I guess a UTI is always a possibility at any time. She did say that the "wound" is almost completely healed. They removed his cathether and was going to use an external one but he was allergic to the rubber material and had to go back to a regular cath. At one point this will come out because they are working with him on bladder and bowel control. I too felt much better after talking to her because she was doing fine with the whole thing. When he had the CT scan, she said she told the doctor she didn't want to know if there was anything wrong because she wanted to bury her head in the sand---sound familiar????lol She definitely has our DNA! I have had the horrible ghost pains now for 36 hours and I'm literally at the screaming level! I took 7 Neurotin yesterday when I normally take 3! Leisa said it won't hurt and you can't overdose on it! Good thing! I couldn't even tell I had taken anything! I did have a couple of hours of relieve yesterday afternoon and took a shower and got my jams on, settled into my chair and BOOM--I'm back!!!!GRRRRRRRR! I did finally sleep last night though and every time they stabbed me, I told myself "work through the pain" and ended up with several hours of sleep at least! I'm off to get ready for church--surely God won't have me stabbed in church!!!lol Love to all, Judy
