    Ouch, not breathing is bad...are they going to have to redo any of the operations?

    Unsure at this point. We'll find out Monday any of that.

    Right now we're just keeping him comfortable and resting. All we can do, give him some time to heal.

    We wondered about you-glad to see you're OK!

    Asher's getting his gastrostomy tube replaced with a shorter one to stop leaking, which is actually a really good thing. Other than that, we're just holding on. Rains at least are coming back in, there was mention of storming. We're hoping nothing else nasty.

    Just to let everyone know, we made it home for all of four days before we were back, now with a severe shunt infection. He's having surgery in a few hours to remove his shunt and put in an external drain, but we have other issues-there may be no site acceptable for a new shunt. He's had recurring hernias, so his abdomen is now out, which would normally then mean the heart, but we haven't gotten word back if he has Marfan's like me, which would make any heart placement pretty dicey.

    An hour and 20 minutes of sleep last night, and a liter of Mountain Dew. It's what we survive on here. We'll have more info later today.

    Wow, bad news. I hope they find a plane to put it.

    Well, he made it through shunt removal and g-tube repair, now he's resting uncomfortably in the PICU, but he's still giving them hell, so it can't be all bad.

    (who are we kidding, we're so tired it physically hurts.)
