Hi everyone,
This is Natalie. I am updating you for Janelle as she is in the ICU with Rex. Rex underwent another surgery today. This time they had to reopen his chest to gain access to his heart. After receiving test results from the fluids drained from his heart they discovered there was a lot more infection that they thought. Within an hour of seeing an x-ray, Dr. Smith who did the actual transplant, found his heart to be inflamed and a massive infection surrounding it. They removed as much of the infection as they could and have him on heavy antibiotics. Dr. Smith stated she was not going to sugar coat the situation. He is in very critical condition and the doctor was not sure if Rex's body would be able to pull through this. The doctors have done everything they could, but it doesn't look good. The infection is in his heart and his blood.
My mom is still with the kids and Carmen is there by her side. The kids know daddy had surgery today and that he is very sick. Please direct your phone calls to me or view the blog for updates. Janelle can not answer all the calls and she is trying to be strong for Rex.
Please pray for this infection to leave his body. Pray for peace and comfort over Rex and the family. Pray for a miracle, because we know God is capable of a divine intervention with this prognosis. Pray that His will be done!!!
In His name,
Natalie
