Bummer

Rowdy is in the ER with vomiting, fever and abdominal pain. We hope that it's just a Crohn's flare-up. He'll get a CT later this afternoon, which will give us a better idea of what is going on.

Please remember him in your prayers. Thanks.

UPDATE: He does have a severe inflammation in his bowel that is causing an obstruction. Dr. Brower, his gastroenterologist, is admitting him and giving him steroids. Brower is pretty confident that once the inflammation is relieved, the bowel will open right up again. Let's hope so!

Yikes! That's so scary. I'm sure you're a great support in the ER just like you were for me 3 years ago!!! Remember? MRSA. Who could forget. Thanks for being with me! xoxo a Valentine's kiss to you

Well that probably takes the fun right out of Valentine's day. Hope he's better soon. Keep us updated!

Yes. It's less about the heart and more about the bowels today.

And it was my pleasure, Lizzie, to hang out with you in the ER. It seems like such a long, long time ago.
