Good Morning!

Today is a new day :) Brent is doing about the same this morning. His blood pressure is doing great. His stomach is distended again today but they have been giving him a drink to lower his potassium which may or may not contribute to what is going on. It has brought his potassium down into the normal range so for now they have discontinued it. His pain is still there but he says its more of an ache than sharp in his stomach area. They did do a stomach X-ray to look at what is going on. He has been taking morphine when the pain gets unbearable. The surgery is still on hold unless his pain gets worse or his blood pressure doesn't stay stable. His white counts are high so they are concerned about what may be going on in his colon even though his signs and symptoms are getting better. His kidneys are not working any better than they were so they are going to give him a high dose of lasix. If that doesn't make him produce urine then they will most likely start dialysis. In the next 24 hours. He is resting comfortably now and has been sleeping for a good half our. He was able to sit up in the chair this morning for about an hour which he was thrilled to do because his back is stiff from laying in the bed for so long.
Thanks so much for all the prayers and support we can feel them!
