Hey, HiloG- yes, we did the "contents of the stomach" check also. BUT I need to add a note of caution to what you posted. In John's case, his stomach quit processing food during the final two weeks and we were measuring the contents to relieve the pressure and had to be very careful NOT to pull out too much at any time. When you have these kinds of responsibilities assigned to you, you really do need to have a good understanding of what you are doing and what it can effect. Mind bending sometimes! Amy in the Ozarks
