"Lucas went into surgery around 7:00 tonight. Most of the day we didn't know if surgery would happen because of the picc line infection he got in the night. But they decided he needed to have the surgery anyway, and things seemed to go well. She didn't know what she was going to do until she opened him up. The plan was to look for a blockage. If she couldn't find one she would give him back his jejunostomy (which we really didn't want). There was alot of scar tissue, she spent an hour and a half cleaning scar tissue. He is also at high risk of getting more scar tissue. There was also a twist in his intestines where the old ostomy was. She removed this portion (about an inch) and reconnected it. She was able to keep his same ostomy he has had from his last surgery. He is still on a ventilator and will be in ICU probably until tomorrow. The plan is to start feeding him in 4-5 days. Hopefully this will give his ostomy another chance and things will start to improve. Thanks for your thoughts, prayers and support. He is a little fighter and has a long road ahead."
