Another Update 5/15/13 @ 10:45 am (Day 13)


Wednesday, 5/15/13 @ 10:45 am (Day 13)
I’m not really even sure how to say what I need to say today.  Samuel has taken a swift turn for the worst.  His intestines and bladder are leaking into this abdomen and his stomach has filled with blood.  Thankfully, God gave us Dr. Kozar to do his surgery today.  She is the same doctor he had when he got off of life flight and the same one who took me to sleep in the trauma doctors sleeping room.  She has a heart of compassion and I can see in her eyes that she hurts that Samuel is back at this point again.  She explained that they have already given Samuel more blood this morning.  She said that this is a very dangerous surgery when doing it the first time and that this will be the fifth time they have been in his abdomen in 13 days.  She said that this is the worst time to have to open him back up because all the little adhesions are starting to heal and there is a tremendous amount of blood flow in that area at this point.  She said she is going to do her very best, but she cannot make us any promises and does not want to give us any false hope.
