did he promise one that will trot you across parks, or one that you sling with o2 in it?
either way, i think he was kidding.

Man, you guys get clothes, all sorts of new inventions that are helpful, and I dunno a whole bunch of stuff. When I was pregnant they only had horrid looking easter egg colored clothes :shakehead Pants that went over your stomach all the way up to your neck and shirts that I could have fit a football team under. Now look at all the great stuff out. Maybe, I should have another...
*Miss coming to her senses* Marci, so glad you are getting to experience some of the nicer things with Sir Jameson. Most especially holding baby.

ok, guys, things are a bit muddled at the moment, but there's something serious going on.
about 0100, he started bleeding from his stoma. he lost a good bit for a baby, and was working hard to breathe. they put him back on the vent & started an iv & started trying to figure out why.
possibility 1 would be that his liver quit making clotting stuff as part of not working very well. they checked all that out a few weeks ago, though, and it was fine.
possibility 2 would be something like esophageal varices. very common with cirrhosis, so very common with alcoholics, but possible with hepatitis, which we know he has because of the tpn. what happens is that the liver isn't processing the blood flowing to it fast enough, so it backs up & causes basically hemorrhoids in the esophagus which can rupture pretty easily. (lynne, feel free to correct or fill in whatever i get wrong. this **** is sooo not anything i know about.)
possibility 3 through whatever is weird stuff like intususseption or congenital malformations. no signs of this on xrays this morning, or when they've done his surgeries.
his clotting factors that are back so far are pretty normal, leading the doctor to think possibility 2 is most likely. he's not close to dying, but is definitely suddenly sick. he's getting blood and might have to be scoped to see if they can see what is happening. the doc said that so far it's been one big bleed, about 20 or so mls, a bit of trickle, and that it seems to have stopped for now.
please, please, prayers and good vibes. i'm so scared. he's been doing so beautifully, and all i can think of are his big lovely eyes.
i'll let you know more when i know more.
