I was told that sharing specific prayer requests really helped you guys out there...so here we go.
The nurse decide to give Seth some Tylenol by mouth. Go figure, since she had just said earlier that he couldn't even have ice chips for 2 days! She turned the ng suction off and gave him two Tylenol with about 3-4 drinks of water to make sure they went down (throat is so sore he couldn't tell). Within two minutes Seth was sitting straight up, hard dry heaves and said that where his ostomy had been was fluttering quickly and killing him.
She got cold compresses for his head and neck and alcohol patches to inhale. She administered more morphine for the pain and compusine for the nausea.
We are back to NO mistakes or carelessness is allowed to even come near the doorway of Seth's room. Prayer request #1
And Seth's neck and shoulders are hurting badly. I think it is from surgery. Prayer #2 No pain or discomfort. Our God can do that.
And #3 for now is that Seth will be at peace.
Jeff and I have gotten several emails asking how we are doing. We are hanging in there. Our total attention is on Seth, honestly Can't tell you how we are. Fine I guess. You guys must really be doing your job. Thanks.
The little boy was brought in about an hour ago. He looks to be about 11 or 12. His mom said it was his 3rd surgery. I don't know for what. She said they should be able to go home tomorrow. They like the room very cold. They have the AIR on. You guys know us. I'm cold at 75. Seth was cold too. We are piling on the blankets and I am covered up sitting in this chair. It's gonna be a long night.
