What? Plastic?

June 28, 2008
So this is one of the situations that happened after we got back from Childrens Hospital in Chicago. I believe it is very important to share all of these experiences so that other parents are more aware.
O my so Lucian went in and had his procedure done they looked with the scope and then dialated. However we found out that apparently when we were in Chicago and they went down with a scope and they saw a piece of plastic and they couldn’t get it out? Thats what the surgeon told us after they came out of surgery.Well actually I think he thought we had already been informed on it when we had not at all. He was like well so apparently Dr. Renyolds called and wanted us to look for a piece of plastic that they thought they saw but couldn get out. Where the hell i mean how in the hell did plastic get there in the first place and i mean a piece of plastic so worse yet he didnt see it so even worse after this is all said and done he starts puking blood and i mean ounces of blood out his mouth and his nose course they wouldn tell us it was blood until this morning after they got it to stop. So here in three weeks Lucian is getting a nissen done. They took a pic of his esophagus and it was the size of the string thats in his nose but they did get him the biggest they ever did and thats to a 24. So now im worried that there might be a piece of plastic embedded in his esophagus or stomach somewhere i mean, how do they know thats not where all that blood has been building up over the last three months they dont know thats just it. Lucian sounds like shit from being revented but he came off it easily. However were not to sure they didnt give him to much anastetic. So in three weeks back to the hospital we go for another surgery. I have to trust our surgeon though, I know that if he thought something was there at all in any way he would tell us and he wouldn stop until he found it, there are chances that if it was there he could have passed it.
