Dave's white blood count is 21,100 today! Dave had an abdominal x-ray, looking at his digestive tract. Dave threw up last night so the nurse pulled some food out through Dave's gastric tube. Dave is having a test run tomorrow to see if the t-tube is working properly. This is the tube in his bile duct that acts as a stint and also drains bile. The doctors' fear is that a portion has pulled out and isn't in proper position. Please pray for wisdom for the doctors and that this test goes well.
