Not the Out come we were looking for.

Matt and Gavin while Matt was checking into Fort Hospital


Matt went to Fort Atkinson Hospital for a procedure to put some dye up through the ureter into Matt's right kidney.  Dr. McKabe was unable to see through the ureter.  She said his ureter was completely blocked with cancer.  She was unable to even think about a stint.  Matt's Diagnosis is Hematuria: Hydronephrosis of right kidney. He has
lots of urine blocked in his right kidney.  Matt's blood pressure is high.  They said due to the kidney problem it will make his blood pressure go up.

Dr. McKabe got out some debris but was not able to help Matt.  Dr. McKabe
scheduled Matt to have a procedure in Watertown on Friday.  The Radiologist
is going to fill Matt in on the possibility of rerouting the right kidney or giving Matt a
urine bag.  Matt will decide tomorrow exactly what he wants to do when he finds out his options.

Please God help Matt to understand all his options and to decide the best option to help him feel better.

Thank you for all your continued prayers for Matt!
