Houston, We Have A Delay

For the first time today, he got dressed in regular cloths, so we asked if we could take Earl outside for his first breath of fresh air in 15 days - they said no. He is sweet and patient and has not uttered one complaint through this entire ordeal.


The cardiologist, hematologist, and GI doctor are all recommending surgery here A.S.A.P. - waiting for colorectal surgeon.

How invasive will the surgery be? We're praying and thinking of you. So sorry you weren't able to take him outside. They must run a tight ship!

Dolly - a nurse took the pic.
Esther - they cannot do the simple fix, due to bleeding and position, requires general anesthesia again.

Esther - Earl said "anything that goes in down there is invading my private space" - haha
