Update

We are thankful. The surgeon found no perforations in any area when he went in. There was some cloudy fluid in the abdominal cavity so they did flush that out and send that off for testing. We have since then learned that his urine came back positive for gram negative rods as well so the consensus is this probably started out as a urinary tract infection that moved into the blood stream. He received platelets during surgery and is provably going to get blood. He also got some hydrocortisone to help him push through and recover from surgery better. Hopefully all of this and your prayers will help. We are so thankful for this news. Please continue to pray for a speedy recovery. He is back in the vent again as he is recovering. Thank you.

  2. Praise God for this wonderful news! I have been praying for Mason since Cara shared his story on Facebook. I added him to our church prayer list after I read the update this morning. Praise God for answered prayers! Praying he recovers quickly from the surgery and gets off of the vent and back to his feeds soon!
