well, dad is scheduled for surgery at 11:30am today. however, last night he was running a fever again. we really want the surgery to happen, because it will bring us closer to coming home.
the surgery consists of inserting two tubes (a g-tube and j-tube). one will be placed in his stomach for drainage to prevent vomiting. the second tube will be placed in his small intestine for liquid food and medine - yum!
i'll post an update on how it all went later today!
update:
dad is currently back and resting. the surgery went well. they didnt have to cut through any muscle, so hopefully it will be a fast recovery! |
