What Our Week Has Looked Like



Last Tuesday, after a weekend of being sick, we found out that Ian's appendix had burst and we were checked into the hospital. They did lypascopifc surgery to remove the two halves of the appendix and cleaned the infected area. We left the hospital on the following Saturday, then checked back in Sunday Night. Ian's little infections decided to form an abscess and his small intestine swelled and wouldn't allow him to keep down anything. This morning (Monday Morning) Ian had another surgery to clean out the abscess, to place a drain in the area of infection, to untangle his intestines and, to place another drain down his nose into his stomach. It will be a few more days until we are out again.
Happy End of the Semester!

  1. That is crazy! I hope he gets better soon! Wish we were there to help you guys out! I think Uncle Ian just wanted to look like his niece, Lyla, with all the tubes in her nose. :) I hope you are doing okay, hospitals are no fun, especially when someone you love is sitting in a hospital bed!
