Update on Trent- we found out that another nerve may have been cut- his Vegas nerve which could be why he can't keep everything down and his voice sounds like an old man . He has to go in for more testing and surgeries..... Hold on tight, here we go again...
First test is next Thursday, it is during outpatient surgery so he will be drugged, which means I get to go hang out at the hospital. Now that I am done with school,  I will have to find something else fun to do. He gets to have a small microchip put in to test the reflux and then he gets to swallow a tube and water at the same time... good luck with that. They are doing the test because he is going to have a Nissan, which means they will tie the top of the stomach around the esophagus , which will make it harder to throw up, but also harder to swallow, so if it isn't reflux caused by the surgery and is just from the vegas nerve cut, that would be horrific to do it because he wouldn't be able to swallow. If the vegas was cut that means his voice will never come back and he will have to get injections every three months until they can put a block in for a permanent solution. Fun times at the Coe house.
