The repair of his small intestine started to leak 2 days after the surgery. His temp spiked to 103, he was in intensive care for 2 days. Now the most serious thing is an infection in his blood, its a yeasty sticky substance that is now causing problems with his heart valve. We are also dealing with his kidneys which are not that great. Day 21, off to the hospital
