He was dehydrated and they have him on fluids now. His potassium is very high which can lead to heart irythma, so they are monitoring his heart and blood pressure and gave him something to protect his heart. He is also on pain meds.

I am going to try and get a few hours sleep, still not sure that's possible...but I have a 9am appt. back there with the Surgeon. TJ will almost definitely have to have surgery

...I am a mess..

I am so sorry he is having such a tough time and that he will have to go through surgery and I know the financial burden is always an issue too. I will keep a prayer candle lit for you and TJ. Keep us posted when you can and rest as often as possible.
