I’m happy to report that Jonathan was discharged from the hospital late this afternoon. He is now home safe and sound and is relaxing with his family.

Earlier today, Jonathan had a second session with the ileostomy nurse Sunny. After that session, Jonathan felt comfortable that he could manage and change the ileostomy on his own.

That hurdle cleared, Jonathan was given the green light by Dr Liu to go home. The nurses removed his JP drain, showed him how to manage the catheter, and finalized the discharge process.

Welcome home, Jonathan!
