Thankful God is with us. This setback could have happened after Alan was released. We could have been rushing him down to the MDA ER. But God. His timing is perfect. He allowed this valley to occur the night before release was suppose to happen!
This morning at around 3:30 Alan had the NG tube placed again. It was definitely the right call. The amount it immediately and has continued to suction out of his stomach explains all of vomiting and nausea.
All the doctors have concluded that his bowels and stomach all decided to shut back down. They said Psych! Given the trauma they have been subjected to, I can't really blame them. Dr. Wise One, Dr. You, and their teams have all reassured us that this is common for HIPEC patients. So we will keep walking to wake up his GI tract!
By 3:30 he's done almost a mile around the floor today. I expect it will be close to a mile and half by the end of the day.
There isn't much else to update. We are just playing a waiting game for his organs to stop playing games! They need to wake up and work. No estimated time of departure from this place until he is back off the NG Tube.
Prayer Needs:
- Competition for girls and TWHS Band tomorrow
- Patience
- GI Tract to work and stop playing games
- Wisdom for doctors
