Doctors now think Nathan’s tummy discoloration is due to an infection and an operation will happen asap this morning. They will go in with a scope and remove any infected tissue from his intestinal area. They may also need to temporarily divert his intestines to an external path (colostomy) to allow the intestines to finish developing. Surgery should commence within a couple hours. Nurses just finished pricking his heel for a blood test and he has a good grip on mommy’s finger the whole time.

Waiting for an update on Kaleb but he still appears very puffy and dark in color.
