Kade's surgery went great. He tolerated everything with ease and is now back in his room. They were able to close the muscle but the skin is not quite all the way closed yet. The next 6-12 hours are very important ones for Kade. Over the last few days the majority of water weight he lost was from his wound-vac. Since he no longer has the wound-vac now they want to make sure that the pressure in his belly stays low and his kidneys do the majority of the work. If he starts to get to much pressure they may have to reopen him again.
He is resting well now and moving a little every once and awhile. The doctors are doing rounds right now so hopefully his goals will be small and attainable today.
