Day 8

Scott was just taken to his sixth surgery. We are hoping that this is his final exploratory surgery.  The surgeons have been looking for and removing tissue that has died off due to blood circulation loss from the aorta dissection 8 days ago.  His stomach has remained open with a wound vac for the past week while they look to ensure that none of his major organs have been affected.  Hopefully this is the final surgery and he can be stitched up so that he can begin the healing process.  The surgeons are also looking at his leg, which has had some complications from the blood circulation loss.  Please keep the prayers coming.
