This is an attempt to give our family and friends a glimpse of our baby Carter's llife. I hope this will help you better understand O.E.I.S complex (Cloacal Exstrophy). Carter is a true blessing and God has a special plan for him.
verse
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:14
How He's doing...
Carter has done really well after his surgery. He still has his NG tube in that pulls everything out of his tummy. This gives his bowels complete rest. The NG tube has had a large amount of output. The fistula is still closed and the incision looks really good. Day 6 and 7 post-op is the weakest time for the fistula site. Day 6 and 7 is this weekend. Please continue to pray the site will stay closed and will continue to heal. As long as the fistula sight stays closed and continues to heal the next step will be for Carter to produce stool. After he produces stool, the NG tube will be removed and we will attempt to begin feeding him. For the most part, Carter has felt really well. Here is a video just so you can see how well he has felt... ENJOY!!! :)
