Well the CT scan showed Blade had inflammation of his colon. They said it was typhlitis or colonitis. Both are treated the same...antibiotics, and no eating or drinking. This has been the worst week thus far. It has been so hard to see him in such pain and now not being able to eat is even worse! He has bawled and begged for us to feed him. He doesn't understand it is for his own good. He doesn't understand that hes really NOT starving...he just knows what he feels! The nurses just have to give him medicine to help him sleep it off. I pray he can start clear liquids tomorrow. I know it could be so much worse and I am so thankful for all the doctors and medicines to help him...but i am a mother watching her son suffer and it is very hard. I am also thankful for all my family and friends and the prayers sent our way. God is right here with us...holding us. Blade will be OK. Lord please give me the strength to keep it all together for not only Blade but Gavin and Simon as well.
Live,laugh,Love
Leslie,
ReplyDeleteI am praying for you and Blade specifically that the Holy Spirit will bring both of you peace and comfort as Blade is healing from this latest complication. We love you guys. Bethany is following Blade's progress and wanted me to tell you that she's praying for him everyday.
