Tues. Sept. 11th

We did hear the test results today. They couldn't see anything abnormal, which is making his intestinal problem unclear. Jeremy and I were able to meet with the surgeon and his team today. There are a few options and one was done today, a very simple biopsy of the bowel. Which the results will be in Thursday morning. The biopsy will show if there is any chromosomal defects to the bowel, which is unlikely, but it's safer to rule this out before the next step which is surgery. It would be arthroscopic surgery, going through his belly button and a few other tiny spots to look at the intestines. Apparently the dye test can't show all parts of the intestine and this would allow the whole intestine to be seen. If there is any abnormality, then it can be removed right then. It would take a few hours.
It scares us that this may have to happen Thursday, but we know he is in good hands and that the hands of the Lord are on him.
We enjoyed seeing Luke together today and we're grateful that Luke's Godmother Kathy Jackson was available on a whim to help us with Bryan. She may be Luke's Godmother, but she is an angel to us.
We'll keep you posted.
