Surgery

Sorry it has taken me so long to update this blog. Clayton's surgery went well. he is now recovering and is looking a lot better. Sorry no new pics. Stacy is staying down there with him during the week then coming home to be with Justin and I. I will be back down there for his next surgery witch should be next Wed or Thurs. That one is for his large intestine. They will be putting a bag on his side for it to dump into, until a later date. As of today he is doing well, they have removed all but one I V, they have removed two of the drainage lines that were in his chest cavity and they have reduced the amount of air they are giving him. He is breathing on his own more than the breathes of air they are giving him witch is a good thing. Oh they also took out the catheter that they had in to measure his urine.

Clayton's Surgery

His Surgery is set for about 2 in the afternoon. they are going in from the front of his chest so they will have to split his chest open. The surgery will last about 1/2 an hour to an hour then with all of the prep and such it will all take about 2-3 houres. Please keep him in your prayers.

Clayton

Clayton is now almost a week old and allready going to have his first surgery. it is set for tuesday aome time. He will be haveing open hart surgery to fix a narrowing in his Aorta. We are praying for that to go well . HE had some fluid on his lungs this morning so the docs put him on some meds that made him pee it out. that seams to be working as of this evening. He had an MRI today but we are still waiting to hear from the surgeons on how they are going to go about his surgery. Stacy will be calling me to let me know what they decided. They determind that he will have to have a surgery on his collen at some point before he comes home, then again after he is a bit older to put everything back were it belongs.
