July 11th, 8:00 AM

Last night was not good for Lindsay. She was having some stomach cramping when I left at 5:00 but we all thought it was just gas pains. They gave her a suppository and we all figured nature would just take it's course. (This was the point at which I was like well... good to see you... going home now... :-)

Unfortunately about 8:00 or so it started to get much worse. I got the call at 11:30 that they thought her pancreas was leaking and they had brought in some surgeons to take a look and do some testing.

The first thing they discovered was that some how one of her suctions had been turned off. We believe on the chest tube so they got that back on. Then they took some blood work to try to figure out the pancreas problem.

While this was all going on her IV site blew and they couldn't get a new one in her. Finally they had to call in the life flight nurses to get another one in but the only site they could find was the crook of her arm so every time she scratches her nose the alarms go off.

At 11:30 last night they had one of her tests back and they said it looked ok but sometime early in the morning they got the others back and they indicated bad news. Right now it is a wait and see game.

They had a trauma come in this morning so they are dealing with that and Lindsay has been pushed back. In a way I guess this should be good because they don't think her problem is life or death but I know it is making her very uncomfortable.

As this point she is on food strike because the doctor in her is telling her if her pancreas is leaking it is bad to eat. Unfortunately this will set back her progress because she is getting no calories in since last night. We do know that her bowels work so at least that is one positive sign but now this is just another hurdle to cross.

I'm heading down there a little later and will update as I am able but I would guess at least until we know what they are doing that there will be no visitors today either.

Please pray that they are able to fix Lindsay's problem so she is not in any additional pain as from what I understand she had a pretty painful and miserable night.
