Update

Brent night went better. They put a tube down to his stomach to relieve some gas/liquid from his intestines. Because of this he was able to sleep descent last night. They have put his dialysis catheter in this morning and the plan is to start that in the next 24 hrs.
The surgeons have been in and they plan to do surgery in the next hour or so. It's a fairly new procedure as the surgeon has only done 3 so far. Please pray that God will guide their hands and the procedure. Generally when this type of thing happens they remove the whole large intestine and put a perminant colostomy bag in. The procedure they are going to do is called the "loop" colostomy. what this means is bring a piece of the small intestine to his abdominal wall, cut the intestine 3/4 of the way around,it will look like a double barrel shoot gun kinda on the outside, their will be a tube placed in one hole that goes to the large intestine/colon to irrigate his colon with antibiotics for the c. Diff and the other one will be for stool to come out. After about 2-3 months the plan is to remove the tubes and sew the intestine back together. After this he should be back to normal as far as his colon goes- as long as things go as planned. This can be pretty risky given all he has going on.
Thanks for all your prayers!!
