It had to happen sometime, right? Luke paid a visit to the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI), here in Tampa, where they were showing The Force Awakens and encountered this nefarious looking bunch of characters. But the Force was with him of course and the dark side baddies were overwhelmed by his light side charm. And so it goes in life. Luke has been fighting the evil Empire MLD for more than four years now (counting his original eye trouble as the start) and so far he's winning the war. We all know where this is going, but for now it's one battle at a time. His latest skirmish was once again with the Sith Lord GI motility. We thought we were doing well, keeping things in balance with lactulose, prunes, suppositories and enemas, but little did we know he was still getting backed up. He was vomiting a lot and continuing to lose weight at an alarming rate (and he really doesn't have any to lose), so we headed back to the Rebel Base ER for some tests and a good clear out. Since then, we've added Miralax, twice the number of suppositories and a little advice from Jedi Master Yoda (go, you must!), which seems to have done the trick. No vomiting for a week now and a fair bit of pooping by himself - always a good sign, right? He's also getting Gatorade instead of water to give him maximum calories and as the food stays down, the weight goes up (hooray!). So this episode ends with the destruction of another Death Star and balance restored to the Force. Until the next time in a galaxy far, far away...
