Surgery Completed - hoping for the best

- Dr. Cummings concerned about Lori's ability to tolerate this
- He cleaned the abdomen again. Not sure where infection started.
- Several perforations in her abdominal region. repaired.
- her intestinal tissue very fragile. sounds like all of the tissue inside of her is fragile.
- G-Tube inserted directly into her stomach
- ileostomy performed- (involves her small intestine).
- organs are stable at the moment
- Lori did better hemodynamically this time - related to blood and pressure

We are sort of back where we started, but we are worried about Lori's weakened state. Next few days are critical.

We need lots of good luck.

thank you for your support.
love
johnny, patti, and shorty

Anyone who knows Lori knows that she possesses a very special kind of grace, courage and determination and that's going to pull her through this. Please know that there are so many people praying for Lori and you all and her care givers, even people that have never met her. Hold onto to the fact that with God all things are possible. Micki

They seem to know you as I have often spoke of you, your strength, positive attend and the sweetest person I know beside your Mom of course and Grandma Sneed. Keep fighting Lori. Patti, Shortman and Johnny take care of each other. Love you all! Ina

I have been thinking about you all day Lori and I asked my priest and a lot of other students to pray for you.

I love you.

Lori,

You and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers, stay strong and positive. A bit of stubbornness doesn't hurt either.
Love to all the Sneeds. AOC
