More Prayers Needed...

****NEWEST UPDATE - BYSON WILL GO INTO SURGERY AT 3:00 FOR THE PROCEDURE BELOW! PLEASE SAY A PRAYER FOR STEADY HANDS AND PEACEFUL MINDS!!!****

B goes in around 2:30 to get the anesthesia. He will have two procedures starting at 3 pm. The first will be to add another drain in his stomach to drain the fluid out--he had one put in already so this will be a second one. Then, they will try to reach the space where the stint is needed that they couldn't get to before. If they can't get to it, he will go through the liver to get to it to stop the leak. (More info below regarding this)

Hey guys, When I posted B's update yesterday we didn't really have the latest. We hadn't been able to get ahold of D for a little over 24 hours and we were all worried. Rightfully so, the news is not good. Please, please, please keep praying for this little guy and the strength of his family and friends.

The news is not good. B is back where he was earlier in the week. Even after removing the 2 liters of fluid from his abdomen on monday, he now has fluid back in his abdomen again and will have to have another procedure. He also has a touch of pnuemonia and fluid in his lungs and a small collapse in his lower lung. They are probably going to get a liver transplant dr to do the procedure cause they need to get to the stint area that they couldn't get to before and if they can't get it, the transplant dr will go in through the liver to do it. Otherwise they have to do open surgery, but they don't want to because they aren't sure that he will stitch up well and because he is so fragile. This little man has been through so much and he is not even 3 years old yet. Please keep him in your prayers and pray for the drs treating him.
