Ng Tube

Keyan had a very rough night, he had extreme belly pain and vomiting. Because this is persisting to this extent they had to place an NG tube. This tube goes through the nose to the stomach and acts like a suction that suctions the contents and the gas of the stomach out. Keyan is very upset about the NG tube and his overall mood is very low. He wants to feel better but he just keeps getting worse.
The doctor came in and talked to us about the possibility of an obstruction in his bowel. They turned off his epidural to see how his body responds, if the pain gets worse and his stomach remains distended the may consider another surgery.
The kids and Kevin came to visit but Keyan was not really up to the visit. Like I said, Keyan's mood is very low, he is upset, angry and in pain. Let's all say a prayer for him.
