Progress Update

Just talked to the dr about what's going on with Trae. Here's the story from what we understand:
While Trae was in surgery, he didn't recieve any blood, which is unusual. So, they have been watching his hemoglobin levels carefully, and in the past day, they have gone down. Today it is around a 7, yesterday it was around 8. (A normal level is about 11-15). The doctors have been debating whether or not to go ahead and give him a transfusion, but so far, he hasn't. He also has some fluid around his right lung. So, today they are going to give Trae some IV medication to get rid of the fluid and make him pee more, which should also help his hemoglobin level to come up a little bit. He'll have more blood tests tomorrow, and if the level hasn't gone up yet, he will get a transfusion.
So, if all goes well, Trae should be coming home on Monday. Thank you to everyone for all your prayers. Trae, himself, is a real trooper. The only thing he hates around here is going for walks in the hallways. I don't know why, but with every walk we take, he cries the entire time. The other nurses and patients must think he's being tortured! :)
