Friday Morning Update

Friday 10:45 a.m.
The Surgeon just came to check on Wyatt and found that his lung is still leaking; therefore, he is back on the suction tube. They want us to wait another day to see if the leaky area closes up on its own. The next option is surgery to insert a larger tube into his chest to seal the hole. She said that they are trying to avoid surgery for him because the lung looks good, aside from the hole. (WHAT??)

My poor guy! He really has been such a trooper. Honestly, I haven't seen him frustrated until this moment. Apparently, when they turn the suction on it causes automatic pain and the nurses aren't responding as quickly as he would like with meds. Once the meds kick in he will return to his Subway/junk food diet. (Shout out to his buds!)
