Vic is still in the hospital with very little improvement. He is still vomiting, even though he has the stomach tube in and large amounts of fluid are being drained from his stomach hoping to relieve the blockage in his small intestine. His heart rate is still quite high. The doctors want to run more tests, an x-ray of his stomach and a doppler on his leg to check on the blood clots. They are talking about taking out the nose to stomach tube and putting in a permanent tube through his stomach wall. But right now it's a "wait and see" until the blockage is cleared up. The doctors believe that the cancer is now surrounding his intestines and this is causing the blockage. At this time, Victor is very weak and is sleeping most of the time. We don't know at this time when he will be released from the hospital. Please continue to pray for Victor - he needs all the help he can get.
Thank you.
Barbara
