A Long Night

Ashton was doing very well most of the night but around 2 he started having a lot of drainage from the chest tubes. They did zn xray and can see fluid around the left lung. They think it could possibly be a collateral that they nicked. There are 3 options: open him back up again, go in and do a cath, or angiogram, or put in another chest tube in the area where there is fluid.

I know we've already asked for a lot of prayers but we need more please.
