Okay, prayer warriors! Time to put in some extra prayers and we know how amazing you all are at that! Carson's follow-up ultrasound of his liver yesterday showed a blood clot in his left portal vein (major vessel that takes about 75% of the blood to the liver but still technically in the venous system). They are certain at this point that it is a blood clot. They are consulting hematology as to the direction to take. At this time, they feel there is blood getting through and are not sure if the clot is getting bigger or not. So, we just need prayers for the clot to dissolve on its own and not have to go through a lot of extensive medical treatment like blood thinners or clot busters. But of course, we want whatever is best for Carson. Elizabeth and Preston are in the process of changing out his tracheostomy for the first time tonight. They have been such strong, faith-filled individuals through all these experiences.
Kellen is doing well. He continues to be an absolute joy! He makes the cutest faces I have ever seen. Uncle James and I, along with a dear friend, are watching him while Preston and Liz are at the hospital. We are having a blast. :)
Thank you so very much for your prayers and we will keep you updated as we know more. There will be repeated ultrasounds of his liver but I am not sure when the next one will be.
