Ridikulus
In an absolutely ridiculous turn of events, Thomas had to have a third surgery in less than two weeks. He had swelling in his ventricles after the second surgery, and was increasingly miserable.After a long wait today they went in and, as I understand it, poked a hole in one of the swollen parts to let it drain. If this works, he won't need a shunt placed.
Thomas did seem more comfortable by the time I left tonight; he finally got to eat after a long day of "NPO" in anticipation of anaesthesia, and he played a bit with his squishy ball (an
excellent birthday present from Tia Roxana), talked at Steve on Blue's Clues . . . we're hoping it lasts. Y'all keep your fingers crossed.
