Brody Had Another Good Night and is Showing Signs of Improvement

Brody did not complain of any belly pains last night.   He ate some peaches and popcorn and drank some chocolate milk while watching Brer Rabbit.   He was enjoying his popcorn a little too much for my comfort level though.   I had to make him stop eating it.   I was afraid he was going to make himself sick eating too much of it at once.   He was NOT happy about that.   He would've eaten the entire bag if I had let him.   Also,  before going to sleep his belly was huge (it looked even more distended and as though that situation was getting worse).   I was very worried when going to bed that he was going to be miserable after attempting to eat  and that the distention would get worse rather than better.   But,  quite the opposite started happening.   Each time I had to wake up Brody to have him pee,  his belly appeared and felt to be getting less bloated and distended.  Also,  each time I woke him up when I checked his pull-ups there was no stool in them.   For the past several days he has had NO control of bowel fuction and his pull-ups would always have leaked stool in them.   Not last night though and so far not this morning either.   And,  he had to wake me to tell me he had to go poop!   I helped him to the potty and he was able to hold it until he got on the potty!  

I went to sleep last night so worried and with virtually no hope left and this morning I see the light of a little sliver of hope.   Hope keeps you going; without it, I don't know how to get through.
