Definately moving in the right direction

We have just come back from the hospital after something of a frustrating morning waiting to see Doctors. In the end we met with the senior surgeon and the Doctor on the ward. Both were very positive. In fact, The surgeon (Dr Chan) was genuinely excited when he pushed down on Will's stomach to see it so soft. He spoke in a very animated way to all the staff around (in Chinese), then told us that this was very good progress. He was processing the fluid by himself. The likely synopsis is that he has a small hole somewhere in the bladder or related system. The fluid (now confirmed - pretty much - as urine) has been leaking out into the abdomin. The cathetor is now functioning correctly (Will's now passed 600+ mls of urine in less than 12 hours), and it is possible that either this is reducing the impact of the hole, or that the hole is healing naturally. Will is to have an ultrasound this afternoon (around 3pm) of the bladder and associated system to see if they can find the hole. If not, the only way of finding it will be to have a more extensive x-ray style test that relies on more injections of tracing fluid, and moving him to another building. They will not do this until he is further stabilised (i.e. breathing by himself) unless things get dramatically worse. They also noted that the blood tests (done 4 times per day) were showing strong improvement in the work of his Kidneys. While the blood tests had initially been ok, they were getting better and better. This is likely to be as a result of the reduced pressure on the Kidneys. After this update, as we were leaving the hospital, we ran into the Surgeon again, who was retelling Will's case to another Doctor in an equally animated way. Clearly strong improvement. Jules and I are now feeling very comfortable with the situation, feeling that God is definately with us, with Will and with the Doctors who care for him. The current timeframe (optimistic best case) is that over the next 2 days Will gets progressively better such that they can ween him off the ventilator, and the sedatives. This has begun, so we'll pray that this happens. At this point they will start to feed him. Jules is now off using the pump thingy in preparation. I've copied another photo or two, and will subsequently attach another couple of short videos. Short Video's 23rd May video of Will - 1 23rd May video of Will - 2
