UPDATED: It looks like Chris's surgery will most likely be on Wednesday this week. He's still getting the nutrition he needs and his protein levels are slowly going up. I'll keep you updated as I learn more about when the surgery will be.

Hi! Just wanted to post an update on Chris. There isn't a ton of new information. He's been getting protein via IV to up his levels. They are far too low right now, but the two bags he's gotten don't seem to have elevated his levels at all. Not sure why. He'll be given protein and saline through the weekend. Not sure when the surgery will happen. Maybe Monday, maybe Wednesday. Because of his low antibodies in his blood, he'll be receiving a blood transfusion prior to his surgery. Say a prayer that the transfusion and the surgery goes well.
So, he's a bit bored and already tired of the hospital. Who wouldn't be? The girls and I are visiting most days, and he's had couple extra visitors every day, so it helps to pass the time. He does have his computer with, so he has access to emails and the blogs. I'll post more when there is new info.
