Time to update some things
1) I have a job interview on Friday. I am very optimistic. Thank you for all you support and prayers.
2) Father-in-law is in the hospital. We've been in and out over the last week. He has had two surgeries and will be having another tomorrow. To make a long story short, he needed some work done on his renal artery- it did not go well. His blood pressure soared during the procedure. THey then moved him to ICU. He was complaining of a lot of pain. The tried 4 different pain meds, but was still having belly pains. Oh yeah, he is allergic to the contrast, so they had to use CO2 for the kidney surgery. Anyway, a side effect is escemia (Basically blood flow loss to the bowels) So, the pain didn't go away and he was vomiting through the night. They decided they needed to do another surgery to see what was going on in his stomach. They did that this afternoon and found that his secum was not quite right (opening from the small to large intestine) They removed a portion and were able to sew it back together. They also found a section of small intestine that was escemic and they were able to remove it and repair it. There was also a spot on the small intestine which was taken care of.
2b) They need to do more surgery tomorrow to see if they got everything. We have not been in to see him, but they JUST walked in to let us into ICU as we speak. Prayers are appreciated for Casey as well as for my interview.
