NEED LOTS OF PRAYERS NOW

Too crazy for pictures right now. We had a scary, scary night - probably the worst night of our lives. As I wrote earlier, Briggs was MAD and HUNGRY, being the strong guy he his. I kept asking for more sedatives and/or painkillers, but they were conservative despite my warnings that he will try to GET OUT if he doesn't get something to eat (and you can't pick him up to soothe him). Technically you have to wait 6 or more hours after being extubated before eating. Finally Billy convinced them to give him food and while he went to get the formula, Briggs sat up, thrashed around on his tummy and had to be restrained. That's when LOTS of blood starting flowing from his chest tube. They told us to get out and that they were calling our surgeon, Dr. Hanley. Thankfully, Dr. Hanley was still here (midnight) and they ended up doing emergency surgery in hospital room to stop the bleeding - there was not enough time to even go to an OR. So, they opened him back up, but the bleeding was so bad that his blood pressure was dangerously low for several minutes. They couldn't put new blood in faster than his blood was leaving. THANKFULLY, he did not die but now we have other potential complications. He is reintubated and we have to wait to see how he comes out today - there's a chance that there could be multiple organ damage, including the lungs, kindney, brain, etc. It seems like he's peeing well (hopefully the kidney is good) and his liver numbers look okay in the blood, not sure about the lungs as he's still intubated and we'll wait to get an exam this morning about his brain from the neurologist. A far cry from our smooth surgery and day yesterday. Up until then, the plan was to send us to a "real" non-ICU room today and then maybe home in the next two. Please pray for his full recovery and his comfort. He is so uncomfortable!! But, we almost lost him and thankfully he is still with us. What a fighter.
