Back at the Hospital

Matt has continued to throw up since last Friday after starting chemo. Dr. Eastman recommended that he should go to the hospital for an x-ray. This morning they did an x-ray and found that Matt has a bowel obstruction in his colon which is what was causing him to vomit this whole time. The doctors think that it is possibly built up scar tissue in his intestine causing a blockage. Matt will have to have surgery tonight at 5:30 with Dr. Stoddard to remove the blockage and continue with his therapy.
Please keep Matt in your prayers for a successful surgery and that he recovers quickly! Thank you for all of your support for Matt so far through his journey.
