> As many of you know, my mother has had a rather rough year with a
> botched gastro bypass operation. Her current condition is that she has
> 4' of small intestine, 1/3 of her original colon, with a colostomy bag,
> and requires 24 hour care. She is also developing an increasing
> encephalopathy condition that is likely tied to the lack of intestines
> providing insufficient nutrition for her brain, despite supplements and
> thrice daily injections of protien nutrient mix through a G tube into
> the lower stapled off area of her stomach.
> Her mental condition is spotty memory, a lack of ability to maintain a
> consistent train of thought, language problems in selecting the wrong
> words, lethargy, depression, phantom pain in her gut (like amputees
> experience), and when her electrolytes get off she hallucinates living
> in a different house with a different family, her dead father, among
> other things.
> I am increasingly of the opinion that she is going to need an
> intestinal transplant to regain her ability to digest sufficient
> nutrition, possibly get her intestine cloned. Can anyone point to
> researchers working in this area, such as those growing cloned organs
> in pigs or in a dish, etc.???
