Well, I guess it's good news to say that we have a plan. It's also good news that we are not headed down to UCLA. Brent is scheduled for another surgery on this Friday, at IMED in Murray. Hopefully Dr. Price will be able to remove the fistula and repair the intestine, and clean up any other mess he finds while he is in there. And, hopefully he can do it with only taking a very minimal amount of intestine. That is the big concern. He really doesn't have any intestine left to take without it getting more critical than it already is. Our only other option was to wait for awhile and see what happens, but eventually it would lead back to surgery anyway, so why wait. It's already been 4 months.
Please join with us in prayer and good thoughts that all goes well. He deserves something good to happen for a change.
We aren't sure when exactly the surgery will be. In the past, Dr. Price likes to have Brent be last so that he can spend as much time as he needs on him.
Thank you for the constant support and strength that you offer us. We are very tired and nervous.
More updates as they come.
