Nolen swallowed 9 little pea shaped magnets on wedensday. On the x ray they appear to be all clicked together and just past the stomach. They haven't moved
tho and the ped. surgeon is afraid they might pinching his intestinal wall and are stuck. So, tomorrow morning we have a consult, then probably surgery in the
afternoon. Probably removing the magnets and then maybe a resection b/c he thinks the lining there is damaged. So, I'm kinda nervous. 
Nolen doesn't
have a clue. 
He just likes all the pics of his belly they are taking and all the attention.
They placed an NG tube and are giving him Go Lightly to get his intestines cleaned out. It sounds like he will have surgery tomorrow afternoon. They
are going to due some xrays to see if they can figure out exactly where the magents are and also place a scope thru his belly but they will actually have to
open him up for the sugery. Also, they said maybe cut a small hole in his stomach and his intestine and maybe resection his intestine depending on the damage.
So, the soonest we will come home is saturday.
