We were supposed to check into Red Cross today, for Bobbinog's liver resection tomorrow, but while at Red Cross, one of his blood tests came back. Not good but very good. His blood culture for bacteria was positive, so all brakes were put on. They cannot possibly operate on him if there is a bacterial infection somewhere in his body. So we have been sent back to Panorama for intravenous anti-biotics and so that they can monitor him. We have however been given another operation date being 28th October, wednesday. Lets hope all is cleared by then.

However, the good thing about going to Red Cross today, is that we met Professor Millar. And some of the other Doctors from the team. We were given a basic rundown of what they were going to do and what we can expect.

Basically, they are removing the enire left lobe of his liver as the tumour is in the middle of it. Also, they are removing his gall bladder too as they need to cut through it to get to the liver, and basically its not needed anyway. I was very worried about the bleeding of the liver when they cut on it, but we were also told that the blade they use to cut quarterizes as it cuts so there should not be much blood loss there, which is a relief at least. The op is about 4 hours long.

But thats next weeks worries again..... Got the weekend off. Thats if we get out of this hospital by the weekend anyway. But baby is not sick and this is just a precaution, so hopefully we will be out here by tomorrow night. Will let you know.
