So, The Team was concerned enough that they decided to drain the fluid off little man last night. Still don't know the exact volume. My husband said it was A LOT and that it was gross and bloody and nasty looking. THEN, the boy's intestines starting working and everything started coming out the other end. So, it looked like his remaining gut had awoken magically after taking the pressure off.
Today, he hasn't stooled again and he has thrown up now 6 or 7 times. He had to go throw up when I was on the phone with him. Aaron promised me that he checked Isaiah's tummy drain and that it was not in a bad position. I will be very interested to know what his lab results look like today.
He's on two different IV antibiotics and an IV anti-fungal now for at least 10-14 days.
This is where things are going to start getting complicated, I can tell.
