We live in Flint, Mich and it s now after 1a.m. Her name is Deborah Stallings Hemphill. My name is Karen Stallings Felder.

Oncologist 's  Response
Hi, I think it's a tumor which has spread to the belly skin. After getting ulcerated, they tend to throw foul smelling pus fluid. If that's only reason, she is going to emergency room, and no other new problem like breathing difficulty or severe pain, then I would suggest to see your doctor coming morning. Take care.
