| Ok thanks to all ya'lls prayers, he's doin lots better now. They got him into surgery around 2 pm this afternoon. He did have a hole in his small intestine, but wasn't caused by what they thought at first. (diverticulitus)...instead he had an ulcerated intestine which had gotten so bad that it had eaten thru the wall of the intestine. They went in, closed up the hole, and then done major flushing of his body cavity. I talked to him on the phone about 5 pm and he said he was feeling lots better, still hurt, but no where near like before surgery. He'll be in the hospital a week or so on some major antibiotics, and a liquid diet LOL But he'll be ok. Whewwww!!!! Thanks again for all your prayers.
