Caleb's Saturday evening update
Saturday, July 19, 2008
I spent several hours with Caleb today. First at Stafford Hospital where he was admitted last Thursday and later at City Hospital on the A34 close to Stoke.
At City Hospital they've given him more anti-biotics as well as trying to wash his eye out so they can see what's happening. Unfortunately, his eye still won't open so they've decided to give him a general anesthetic so they can do two things: Open his eye after soaking it first and also drain and wash his sinuses.
Incase anyone's wondering Maxine is staying with him the whole time so he's never left alone. Caleb is due to go down to theatre sometime after 10:00pm tonight. As soon as he does, Max will text me and then later when he's out.
Edit: Due to the anaethetist not being happy with not that many consultants being around if anything went wrong and with Caleb eating a small amount of apple about 5:00pm, his operation has been postponed until 9:00am tomorrow morning.
As soon as I know anything I'll blog again, but if anyone wants to find out any info on his progress, he's on Ward 112 and the ward Tel No's are: 01782 552754 and 01782 552753.
