Jinx!

Well, now the sunshine went away. I am not sure what exactly is going on because we've just heard bits & pieces as nurses, GI, and respiratory come in. From what I understand, they think he might've aspirated. They've stopped the tube feed for now. They mentioned something about getting an X-ray. If this is the case, the nurse said they may extend the tube from his stomach to his intestines so they can bypass the stomach all together thus helping him to digest the food. Aspiration seems very serious and is what we were very much worried about before the surgery. Please pray for him. I don't exactly know what to ask you to pray for, but he needs prayers. I will update you more when we hear from the doctors. They think maybe there was a leak in his tube. Like I said, I'm not totally sure what is happening and I will let you know when I hear more news.


It has been a good day up until the afternoon when he started to feel worse. Pray, pray, pray please!
