Another operation?!?!

Zem has had a pretty tough day. He had a high temp and heart rate earlier in the day, which resulted in him being placed on a drip. He has antibiotics being poured into his body. For the most of today, he has been quite bubbly - signing, talking and finally getting some appetite back.
In yesterday's operation, some Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) flowed out on the right ear - which was supposedly fixed. However, Zem still has some fluid leaking from his nose when he sits up straight. (something that we expected to happen for a couple of days).

CSF coming from Zem's nose is not a good thing however, it increases his chance of meningitis which is dangerous enough on its own.

But, just in case that the amount of fluid coming out doesn't fix itself, he has been booked in for another operation tomorrow evening. It is a bit unexpected and is placing more stress on an already stressful week. But God knows what each of us can deal with...and there will be some purpose to this I am sure.

Still, I hope that the leak has fixed itself by morning so that there will be no need for the extra intrusion. Please continue to pray for us. It allows God to work overtly in our lives. Our gratitude goes to all of you.
