Update on Justin since his CT scan : All 3 Chest tubes went smoothly. They are going to have to put TPA (clot buster) in one of the tubes to break the fluid up that has congealed in one of the areas beside his right lung. That is what was causing the pain, possibly fever and increased WBC. So this is good news that they have determined the probable cause of those issues. All other organs look great in his abdomen including his liver and gallbladder that were if concern.. The dr wants to wait to do the Trach tomorrow morning so that he can be here all day to watch him. Plan is to keep him sedated tonight and do tracheotomy at 8 am. Thanks for continued prayers. Hoping tomorrow is a better day!!
