It's about 10:30pm and this is the first time we have left the hospital since noon on Sunday. Aaron's having a rough time right now. I am tired but will quickly try to give a general update. First, we still need pee and lots of it. He still is just not peeing. Second, he is having some respiratory issues. Lets go back to yesterday.
We got there Sunday around noon - the doctor was there and went over Aaron system by system. When we got there his oxygen was at 95% when he was feeling good he was down closer to 21% (which is what we all breathe - 21% is room oxygen). So he was at 95% oxygen, he still was not peeing, he was swollen. Meanwhile his lab work was looking pretty good, and they were giving him fluids to try to fix the peeing issue. They looked at his kidneys which look ok, checked his bladder for urine and there was none. His 3 issues were - no pee, heavy oxygen support and the fact that his incision from the surgery had opened up due to the swelling. The doctor said she was okay continuing as long as we were - we called in our parents and pastor, but we were continuing. Within a couple hours he was back down to 65% oxygen which was good. Anyway, we spent the night just because we were so worried.
He had a good night last night. Stayed down on the oxygen. Had a good morning this morning. We stepped out to get some lunch and he was way back up on his oxygen and has been ever since. He is currently around 98% so we need him to come down from that. We came home cause even though he is high on the oxygen we need some rest for us. We'll be back down there early tomorrow morning.
Aaron needs lots of prayers for healing, but daddy and mommy could really use some prayers as well - it's been a really rough couple days for the 3 of us. We know God hears all these prayers and we appreciate them as well. So it was not so quick - but it was in fact a complete update.
Lots of love and thanks to all of you that are being there for us while we are being there for Aaron - Aaron knows he has a HUGE fan club - and he was glad so many came out this weekend. He also knows of his "virtual" online fan club as well. Thank you all for the thoughts, prayers and comments - we love you!
