They tapped the shunt and found some elevated pressure so tomorrow morning at 7:30 a.m. he is having a shunt revision surgery. Please pray that this will go well and relieve his irritability (he's been very irritable which is a sign of shunt malfunction). Also pray that he will be able to breathe well after extubation (taking the breathing tube out after surgery), and recover quickly. I (Carrie) am staying with him tonight and am anticipating a very long night with his fussiness, but am praying this will not be the case.
