wanted all of you to know what is going on... At first, they did not have a private hospital room...then all of a sudden, one appeared. (Miracle!) Adam is in a step down unit (the next thing down from Intensive Care). He has a nurse at a window that watches him 24 hours a day. Told Den to tell him that I was going to get jeaulous at all those pretty young nurses trying to win Adam's heart. LOL. Adam still has the tube in his nose. I am gonna tell what the Docs think it is but excuse me if I spell it wrong..been out of nursing school for awhile. Superior Mesentary Artery Syndrome...something is putting pressure on this artery..now this is only what they suspect and will know for sure tomorrow after the barium test they will be doing on the GI tract. I am gonna pull out all my old nursing books and start refreshing myself so maybe I can explain it better. They will know pretty much what is going on after the test tomorrow. The Doctor is with Adam rite now. I am going to talk to him later tonite so I will update again later. Den was laughing and did get some rest. Barbara is hanging in there too even though she has to spend alot of time with Den.(this was his joke..LOL) . He said to keep the prayers going..He said poor Adam was just having to lie there in that bed and be bored..I told him to tell Addy that we have a big surprise for him so when he gets out, he will definetly not be bored. Watch out WWF site...here comes Adam! Keep the prayers going up...I know God is in control here. smiles,nancyc
