Take no thought for tomorrow...... Sunday night David had a rough night with pain and bloating in his stomach. On Monday he was able to get an appointment at 3pm and when the doctor examined him he ordered a CT scan of the stomach area immediately. It was around 9 pm when we had the results of the scan. The doctors said there was a partial blockage of the small intestine and wanted him to check into the hospital. His internist was sure they would be doing surgery. David begged of of checking in that late and asked to come back to the hospital on Tuesday morning. Reluctantly they let him come home.
He checked into the hospital on Tuesday. Several doctors examined him and decided to drop an NG tube down his nose into his stomach to give him some relief. For three days he has had only ice chips. After several consultations the doctors have decided that the blockage could be an infection. Wednesday morning late they put in an IV and started him on antibiotics. If these work he may be able to come home today or Friday. The doctors want him to stay on clear liquids this weekend and come back to see them on Monday.
He was supposed to do a wedding in Illinois on Saturday and we had to cancel. So sorry Noah and Johnson family. We are so disappointed we won't be able to be a part of this joyous celebration. We have our tickets to fly back to Haiti on Tuesday but that won't take place. Please pray for David's healing
