Blake update: Today Blake had a long day of fluid adjustments and getting a VCUG done. The VCUG allows them to see what the lower-urinary tract looks like. I will spare you the details of all that other than we do think that the blockage in the lower section is posterior urethral valves which can be taken care of.
The number one concern right now is completely ridding Blake of his pneumothorax issues (which are clearing up and are almost gone) but also figuring out what fluids he needs to stabilize his lab readings. His sodium level is low and needs to come up. We need to get good numbers on his electrolytes too. We can't move forward on trying to fix blockage, bladder, or kidney issues until these are stabilized.
This is going to be a loooonnnnnggggggg process. Who knows how long, time will give us answers but we have no clue how much time. I will try to keep this updated each night.
