Day 59

Hi folks.  This is Claudia again.  I spoke on the phone with Mendy today.  She said Daniel is hanging in there.  He has some pain, but it is manageable.  He now has a laptop at the hospital, so that helps him (and Mendy!) pass the time.  

The doctors did say the stint in his liver is not draining the bile as effectively as it should -- this is the stint that was put in during his first hospital stay.  The doctors may have to go in and fix that, but this specific operation is done endoscopically, so it is not nearly as invasive a procedure as what was done two days ago to put the four drainage tubes in.   We will post an update regarding the 'stint work' as soon as the doctors decide it needs to be done.  

Otherwise, pending any new posts, please know that Daniel is waiting and resting in the hospital as he should.  He could be in the hospital for anywhere from 1-2 weeks.  We will post an update as soon as we know of any changes in his condition.  Warmly, Claudia

    Little did youknow what 4 boys would be to your peace of mind!!! Trust me girls can do the same thing to it. lol
    I am sorry to hear all the things happening to Daniel again but like you are thankful the outcome is good.
    You will need a quite vacation after this is over and all settle down.
    Harrianne had foot surgery and is doing good. She will be off her foot for 6 weeks. Sits mostly in a wheel chair til then.
