...a good morning. Seth slept well.
Before bed last night the surgeon, not Dr, S. but his sidekick, came in and looked at Seth. They ordered labs, xrays, and ordered more fluids through IV to replace the output in the NG tank.
This morning they were in at 7A and said Seth has STRESS GASTRITIS. I use to be pretty common, but never happens these days, (yeah right), because they give meds to prevent it. Seth had the meds but didn't respond.
His blood levels have dropped, but are holding stead now and the volume from the NG has decreased. Thanks again for praying us through this thing.
I believe the enemy is working overtime on us. I don't understand how. As I told Pastor John, I am praying and trying to focus on Seth, Jeff is praying, but has to be home to work, so we need the AUTHORITY to walk into this room and take over...so Pastor John is on his way out here right now. We love him so much. He said he would have come last night if I wanted, and we told him no.
So anyway, the solution to the SG is to remove the NG tube. Go figure, that's what I have said all along! So pray, pray, pray that Seth's stomach will cooperate and they will pull the tube and start to give something by mouth, it's been 6 days so that will be in it's own prayer bracket!
I'll update when I know something. Love you all. Vickie and Seth

Stress Gastritis, hm? Now that you look at it, it almost seems pretty obvious. :\ But hey at least they've found out what's going on. :) I've been tested for that, and it's not uncommon for people with IBD to get other little intestinal problems on top of it. It's all just part of the fun.
Anyway I was thinking/praying for Seth all last night and I hope he improves and continues to improve. :)

Hi Vickie and Seth,
So they are finally going to deal with the ng tube. That's great. It should be a great relief to Seth to have it removed. And it will likely cause his stress level to decrease. Yucky thing. It is fantastic that Pastor John is coming to see you. Looking forward to your next update.
Love you both,
Aunt Laura
