Jarrod's rough day

Whew. If you didn't know before, Jarrod gets kidney stones. Well, he's had one very large one (That was 12mm which is not passable)for 2 years now and he finally decided to get it taken care of since it has been bothering him more frequently lately. His procedure was yesterday and they were supposed to have light sedation then they would use a laser contraption to blast the kidney stone and break it up into small passable pieces. While they were trying to sedate him, he got sick and so they had to put him completely under, and then they had trouble intubating him. Apparently, he has small airways. They even gave us a form that we a supposed to take to any future surgeries or procedures. So they finally got him sediated did the procedure and it all went well. He did bust a blood vessel in his eye when he got sick in the OR, so he looks just awful! Poor guy!

All was well, he was uncomfortable but was handling the pain well... Until about 2pm when the pan got unbearable and the Percocet wasn't helping at all! He put a call in to his Dr., who told him to try and tough it out till 9am when his office opened. He tried as long as he could but around 4:35, he had had enough. So my brother came over and stayed with Stratton while I took Jarrod to the ER. They gave him some good pain medication and we were back home around 8am. Jarrod rested and napped most of the day and so far hasn't needed anymore pain meds today. I am hoping that he can rest tonight and scan get some sleep! My mom and dad came earlier in the day and they took Stratton home with them in case we have another rough night. But hopefully it will be better than last night!
