Yesterday may of been the last day of Sushi eating for Steve. He ate it for lunch & by 4:30pm he was in the emergency room. Thank you to Kevin for dropping him off for me!! We thought it was food poisoning, but after about 5 hours of waiting in the emergency room they decided it was a hernia in his abdominal wall.
He is still in the hospital & the doctor just told us he doesn't need surgery today. They are going to treat him with antibiotics and keep an eye on him to see if that will clear up the problem. It might be gastroenteritis. We were relieved because earlier this morning they thought it was because his bowel was entwined with the hernia.
If the antibiotics don't work they'll do another CT scan & talk about surgery, but the doctor said his stomach is not the kind he operates on (it doesn't feel tight). So that is good news! He is laying in his bed emailing on his phone & I am blogging on his laptop to pass the time. We are just grateful for his painkiller... it is helping the pain in his stomach & he can finally relax a bit.
Thank you Shelly & Grandma for taking care of the kiddies!! We LOVE YOU!!
