We brought Hunter home yesterday. But, had to turn back around. They did rule Hunter as having a viral infection. The pain was still a mystery until we got home. We noticed that his pajamas was soaked and had stomach acid all over them and him. His G-Tube had busted apart in his stomach. He had to have emergency surgery last night at 2:30 AM to repair. His surgery went fine and he is recovering. They said that he might be released today. But, the details are still sketchy. During the surgery, they took a scope down into his stomach. They saw that his stomach was highly inflamed from the G-Tube malfunction. So, he might have to be in the hospital for a day or two longer. They have to make sure that he can tolerate his feeds through his G-Tube. On the good side, he woke up this morning with no fever. And, we are hoping he will be breaking that soon. The inflammation of his stomach and the G-Tube breaking apart would've been the cause for all his pain. They said it would hurt a great deal. The poor baby! Thanks for all your prayers and support.
