Surgery Number Six

On Wednesday Silas had surgery to get rid of the posterior urethral valves (PUV). It was supposed to be an out patient surgery. There was a small complication with it. His anatomy is so messed up from his bladder and kidneys being swollen. When they went to put a catheter in him after the surgery was over it didn't go where it was supposed to, and went straight down through the bladder opening and nicked his rectum. They doctors were worried about infection, and were talking about him getting a colostomy. Thank God they were very proactive and started antibiotics right away. His is doing a lot better now, and should be out of the hospital by Monday.

Waking up after surgery and seeing mommy!
